Dear Student,

To become a physiotherapist, candidates need to have attained the 10+2 qualification from a recognized educational board. Physiotherapy is a branch of healthcare that applies modes of physical movement such as exercise and massage. After completion of this course, one can work in Hospitals, Educational Institutions, Health Institutions, and such and make money of about INR 2 to 8 lakhs.


Physiotherapyis a separate form of treatment and is not a part of Mbbs scope. A doctor is a person who treats & physios are not technicians. However, Physiotherapists can use the title “Dr.” and write it in front of their names.
