Lorna Harper graduated from the University of Liverpool (England) with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honors).
Originally from St Albans, England, Lorna relocated to Australia to further her career in Physiotherapy, specialising in hand therapy, and enjoy the local sport Melbourne has to offer.
During University Lorna studied a variety of health-related fields including human anatomy and Biomechanics. She has clinical experience working within acute and subacute hospital settings in the NHS. Following this she transitioned into outpatient rehabilitation gaining valuable experience and supporting clients with a wide range of musculoskeletal problems and sporting injuries.
Lorna developed a passion for hand therapy during her experience within the NHS. This passion grew from developing her knowledge in the anatomy of the upper limb and seeing the direct impact that hand therapy can have on someone’s
life.
Lorna strives to help patients return to their pre-injury level, whether that be work, sport or anything that is important to them. She particularly enjoys staying up to date with the latest in hand therapy research and developing tailored rehabilitation programs for her patients.
Outside of work you’ll find Lorna playing cricket, representing in her local women’s first XI and coaching up-and-coming junior talent. Luckily for Action Rehab, Lorna now dedicates her time to supporting people to overcome their upper limb injuries.
You’re in good company.
