Currently there is a lot of demand for physiotherapists in the USA, Canada and Australia. In India too the demand is rapidly increasing. It is estimated that one physiotherapist is required per 10,000 people. At present there are only 5,000 qualified physiotherapists, so the demand for trained professionals can only be imagined.

Moreover, the increasingly sedentary urban lifestyles and lack of exercise brings on a whole gamut or body aches and pains, which requires the assistance of specialized physiotherapists.

The growing awareness of the role physiotherapy can play in enabling the physically handicapped to lead productive lives has increased the demand for trained professionals. Employment opportunities for physiotherapists are tremendous.
