Jane Scanlon

Physiotherapist
Injury Management Specialist

I am a compassionate and experienced physiotherapist with over 20 years of clinical experience in injury management and rehabilitation. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Sports and Exercise Science and a Master of Physiotherapy and have developed my expertise across a range of settings including private and public hospitals, community programs, and private practice. My career has been dedicated to supporting individuals through acute injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, chronic pain, and complex medical conditions.

My approach is holistic and person-centred, considering the physical, psychological, social, and emotional aspects of recovery. I work closely with clients, families, and multidisciplinary teams to develop tailored rehabilitation plans that reflect individual goals and needs. From initial assessments through to return-to-work or life planning, I provide a range of physical, psychosocial, and workplace assessments that ensure outcomes are meaningful and sustainable.

I bring a strong background in conflict resolution and workplace training, which supports my ability to identify and manage challenges, foster collaboration, and facilitate smooth transitions back to work or community life.

I have extensive experience working with first responders and personnel in high-demand roles, including members of WA Police, Fire and Emergency Services, St John Ambulance, the Australian Defence Force, and the Department of Justice. I also support veterans through the Department of Veterans Affairs. I deeply understand the complexities of their roles and the unique barriers they may face during recovery.

My clinical background also includes supporting individuals with complex medical conditions such as chronic pain, CRPS, psychosomatic pain, head and spinal injuries, and amputations. I am highly attuned to the impact of mental health and cultural factors on rehabilitation and am skilled in providing empathetic communication and appropriate referrals to ensure comprehensive and dignified care.

I’m dedicated to empowering each client on their path to recovery, resilience, and a fulfilling life.
