Meet the team

Where it all began...

Whitehall Physiotherapy started way back in 2007. Over the years we’ve grown and developed into a 5 strong team combining both physiotherapists and masseurs. Highly skilled and specialist treatments, with past team members progressing their careers and going on to represent the UK on the Paralympic weightlifting team.

We are also keen to encourage the next generation of Physiotherapists, having employed, trained and seen qualify 3 physiotherapy students over the last 5 years.

We’re proud of our protected Physiotherapy titles, and are recognised by the Health Professions Council. This enables some eligible patients to claim back some of the cost of their treatment.

Established in 2007. Opening the doors to our Birkenshaw clinic in 2008.

Two highly skilled physiotherapists all members of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy. An expert masseur and highly trained Sports Rehab Therapist all under one roof.

Specialist treatment available in Biochemical treatments, shockwave therapy, acupuncture and neurological treatments

Providing both in clinic and at home treatment options

Next generation physio: student nurturing since 2013

Meet the team

Liz Benton

I am the practice owner and Senior Physiotherapist. I enjoy working as part of a team and learning from my colleagues. My patients are an inspiration to me and I’m always looking for new ways to improve my practice and their recovery. You may be interested to know I am a keen Yoga participant and have recently learnt to do a headstand! I also enjoy skiing, swimming and general activity. I have been known to “whip up” a great curry following my recent trip to India!

Matthew Allen

I qualified as a physiotherapist in 2008 and since then have worked in private practice throughout West Yorkshire. I am currently working towards my MSc In Muscular Physiotherapy, in order to enhance my Jedi skills in helping people to remain active. In my spare time I have a real passion for food and love trying crazy experiments in the kitchen. I am a chocaholic and love puddings. I try offset this by remaining active, regularly exercising in the gym and running.

Mark Whitaker

Mark has recently joined our team. He has been practising therapeutic and sports massage for over 3 years now and will be happy to help ‘smooth’ out any knots and tensions you may be living with.

He loves all kinds of sports and is an avid Huddersfield Town and Batley Bulldogs for (for his sins).

Ellie

I’m Ellie and I am currently in my last year of a BSc Sport Therapy and Rehabilitation degree. From being inspired through working at Whitehall I am hoping to move forward into a MSc in Physiotherapy to increase and refine my knowledge! I joined the team as a student on work experience! I love working as part of a team and learning from my colleagues!

Supporting students and trainees

We actively encourage and support students who are already studying physiotherapy, but also offer observational hours to those considering a career in physiotherapy or sports rehab when available. We have successfully supported four physiotherapy students who are now well into their physio careers.
