Jaeme Last
Growing up Jaeme’s parents put her into every sport they could think of in the hope that she’d become a professional sportsperson and fund their cushy retirement. Her favourite sports were gymnastics, dance, soccer, AFL and athletics and she achieved national and state level in 7 sports. Unfortunately she didn’t go on to make a career as an athlete but still loved her sports, and developed a passion for health and fitness that drew her to a career in which she could help and inspire others with physiotherapy.
Jaeme is enthusiastic about the ability physiotherapy has to improve people’s quality of life, and is committed to helping people achieve their health and fitness goals and return to the things they love to do, whether that’s high level gymnastics, or being able to play on the floor with their kids. She loves treating people of all ages, abilities and goals. Her goal is to get you better than you were BEFORE your injury.
You will be hard pressed to find someone with as many job titles as Jaeme! She completed her Bachelor of Physiotherapy with a distinction average AND is an accredited Clinical Pilates instructor AND a Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach. She has experience in sporting and musculoskeletal settings both on and off the field including elite and club level sports, as well as in the hospital environment treating patients post-surgery, in neurological and geriatric rehab, cardiorespiratory and intensive care.
She believes in a holistic, evidence-based approach and combines biomechanical analysis, exercise prescription and manual therapy techniques to effectively treat pain and optimise function. She has a special interest in acute and chronic sporting injuries, particularly running related injuries, lower limb tendinopathies and muscle injuries.
In her free time you will find Jaeme on a run (aiming for a marathon PB (sub 3:10)!), at the beach and making / eating yummy food.
