WA Health Group

At Burswood Health part of WA Health Group, we’re passionate about continually learning so we can better support our patients in returning to the activities that matter most to them. Pain shouldn’t stop anyone from fully living!

We were thrilled to host Naomi Terpsis, Registered Psychologist from The Expansion Point, for an inspiring in-house session with our clinical team of physiotherapists and chiropractors. A massive thank you to Naomi and Reuben for organising this fantastic learning opportunity! 🙌

Naomi shared powerful insights into Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and its application in pain psychology. We explored:
- Why traditional CBT sometimes falls short
- The important purpose pain can play
- How to help patients accept and effectively manage pain rather than endlessly chase complete elimination
- Practical techniques like creative hopelessness and reflective listening
- The power of aligning treatment with each patient’s personal values and meaningful life goals

By better understanding the psychological and emotional side of pain, our team is even more equipped to support you with compassion, curiosity, and real-world strategies that help you move forward.

If pain has been holding you back, know that we’re here — committed to helping you reconnect with what matters most in your life.

✨ Meet Shilaine! ✨

We're excited to introduce Shilaine, one of our physiotherapists at WA Health Group. Shilaine is located at our Canning Vale and Murdoch clinics.

Shilaine enjoys working with a diverse range of clients, including people living with disability, older adults, and school-aged children. She has a patient-centred approach to care and works with individuals to develop personalised management plans that align with their goals and support their movement and function.

You may see Shilaine leading our Clinical Pilates and Functional Strength classes, where she enjoys helping people build confidence in movement in a supportive environment.
Shilaine is also developing a special interest in women's and pelvic health and is continuing to expand her knowledge and skills in this area through ongoing professional development.

Outside the clinic, Shilaine enjoys swimming and horse riding (or at least trying to! 🐴🏊‍♀️).

Be sure to say hello if you see her around the clinic! 👋
