Physical Therapy Programs in Massachusetts - MA

By an allied health world contributing writer
Published: February 5th, 2010

As society ages, jobs for physical therapists are becoming more and more in demand.  One of the things to be aware of when becoming a physical therapist is the strain that may be placed on you.  Physical therapy often involves lots of bending, twisting, and lifting.  Make sure you are physically capable of the task when you choose to become a physical therapist.

There are several Massachusetts physical therapy schools along with many online options. These schools can be located in Charlestown, Lowell, two in Springfield, and three in Boston.  Of these seven universities, all of them offer Doctor of Physical Therapy degrees, and five of them offer the undergraduate degrees required to eventually gain the Doctor of Physical Therapy degree.
