With over 20 years of experience, Dr Shane is a highly respected podiatrist and acupuncturist with a specialist focus on chronic pain and lower limb sporting injuries. Renowned for his advanced approach, Shane partners with clients who are ready to move beyond pain and performance plateaus—bringing cutting-edge care and global insight to every session.
Shane does not provide routine nail or skin care, nor accept EPC referrals, as his clinical focus lies firmly on high-level, outcome-driven treatment.
His areas of expertise include:
• Complex foot and lower limb pain
• Sports injuries and performance biomechanics
• Advanced orthotic therapy (3D-printed and milled custom devices)
• Precision dry needling techniques for pain and recovery
Shane uses Australia’s only foot scanning equipment capable of digitally modelling the foot for both 3D printing and milled orthotics—offering unmatched accuracy and customisation. He also trains alongside leading U.S. physicians in cutting-edge dry needling techniques used by elite athletes worldwide.
As a former team podiatrist for Perth Glory, and a long-time supporter of community and elite sports teams, Shane has worked with athletes at all levels—including international track competitors. He’s also a sought-after educator, having lectured at Curtin University (18 years), UWA (8 years), and at international conferences across Europe, Asia, and the UK. He is the Managing Director of Artisan Orthotic Laboratory.
Shane believes true breakthroughs happen when practitioner and client work as a team—with clarity, purpose, and commitment.
Shane is based at Hillarys Podiatry, located within Live Well Physio Hillarys.
