ABIT ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Jane—Remedial Massage Therapist and founder of JP Bodywise. Originally from Newcastle, England, I moved to Perth, WA in 2012.

​

From as early as 3 years old I was always on the go. I did ballet, stage and tap dancing, trampolining, cross-country running, athletics, basketball, football and netball. My proudest achievement though; a Gymnastics career spanning over a decade, competing at National level in both Artistic and Team Gymnastics.

​​

Being a competitive gymnast put a lot of stress on my body and meant that I had my fair share of injuries; from overuse to trauma to growing pains.  As I grew older and less active, the injuries weren’t healing as quickly. Combine this with a sedentary desk job and the onset of an autoimmune disease, I really was a far cry from the healthy athlete I once was. 

​

This lit a fire inside of me. I needed to get healthier. I needed to make a change. I wanted to do something that I was good at, that I liked, that helped people. People like me. With support from a personal trainer and life coach, I rebuilt my mindset, my health, and my lifestyle—and in doing so, I found a new path. I asked myself:
What do I love? Health and fitness.
What do I understand? Pain and injury.
What am I great at? Massage therapy.

That’s when I knew: this was the work I was meant to do.

​​

I went on to complete my Diploma of Remedial Massage and opened JP Bodywise, where I now help people just like you—active, hard-working individuals who want to move well, feel strong, and stay injury-free. Whether you're dealing with pain, recovering from an injury, or simply wanting to take better care of your body, I'm here to guide you with experience, empathy, and hands-on support.

Outside the clinic, you’ll usually find me hitting the gym, flipping around at adult gymnastics once a week, or riding on the back of my partner’s Harley—he’s a Harley stunt rider, so there’s never a dull moment! I also share life with three beautiful Labradors, Dex, Rex and Zoey, who keep me active, grounded, and always covered in dog hair. Staying active and adventurous is still a big part of my life, and it keeps me connected to the lifestyle I love and understand so well.
