Our Story
Whitehouse Physiotherapy was just a thought and a dream that turned into a reality and a passion.
The dream took shape over years of early mornings, long clinical days and a growing desire to build something unique. A place where expert physiotherapy care would feel personal, purposeful and genuinely connected to the Mildura community.
The name Whitehouse Physiotherapy was a straightforward choice and a deliberate one. Putting your surname above the door means putting your reputation on the line with every patient, every treatment, and every outcome. It’s a statement of accountability. It’s a promise that the person treating you is the same person who built this place from the ground up and cares deeply about what happens inside it.
From the beginning, the philosophy was clear. Collaborative. Methodical. Restorative. Work together. Treat with precision. Restore lives. Not just injuries, not just bodies, but the everyday moments that matter the most. The morning walk, the training session, the game, the garden, the life well lived.
Whitehouse Physiotherapy opened its doors in 2027 with one simple ambition. To be the clinic Mildura could aways count on. The ambition hasn’t changed and it never will.
Our Team
Thomas Whitehouse
After years working in a busy sports physiotherapy clinic in North Adelaide, Thomas made the deliberate decision to return home to Mildura.
At Whitehouse Physiotherapy Thomas treats a wide range of clientele. This spans from athletes pushing their limits, to working adults managing the demands of daily life and older clients looking to remain active/independent. No matter the age or condition Thomas’ approach remains the same with a dedication to achieve results.
Thomas’ passion truly comes alive with sports injury and post operative rehabilitation. Having spent years working in these areas, he has developed an expertise in helping people navigate the road back from injury and operation.
As an Ironman 70.3 athlete himself, Thomas lives the reality of training, pushing limits, and managing a body under load. He understands what it means to have a goal and what it takes to get back to it when things don’t go to plan.
Away from the clinic and the training track, Thomas is a committed Carlton supporter and someone who is a self proclaimed coffee connoisseur. If you have a good local recommendation, he is genuinely all ears.

It comes down to our philosophy.
Collaborative. Methodical. Restorative
We treat with method, meaning every decision is evidence-based, structured, and purposeful. Nothing here is guesswork. We work collaboratively with you, because we believe recovery is a shared journey between you and your practitioner. Everything we do is focused on restoration, not just treating the injury, but restoring the life around it.

In most cases, yes! You might be surprised by just how broad physiotherapy’s reach really is. Physiotherapy isn’t only for elite athletes or people recovering from surgery. It’s for the parent whose back aches every morning, the retiree who wants to keep gardening without pain, the teenager returning from a sporting injury, and the post-operative patient learning to trust their body again.
If you’re still unsure, don’t hesitate to contact us by email or phone.

Your initial consultation is about understanding you. We use a thorough subjective examination to identify your current concern, history, lifestyle and goals. This is followed by a physical/objective assessment to provide a clearer picture of your body’s strengths/weakness and what might be contributing to your concern. Towards the conclusion of the session we provide an in-depth explanation of your presentation and the best evidence methods to manage this moving forwards.
