How much do physical Therapy assistants make?
I want to go to college for cosmetology and physical therapy assistance. My son is in therapy and I literally fell in love with it, it’s helping my son so much. I would love to go to school for 8 years to become a physical therapist, but I don’t have the time, so I would like to do the assistance for now. Does anyone know how much they make in Florida? How long I’d have to go to school for?
PTA or Physical Therapist Assistant is 2 years of schooling and you’ll get your associates degree. You can do it at an accredited community college. Salary for PTA”s ranges from $20-30/hr. DPT or Doctorate of Physical Therapy is 7 years of schooling( 4 undergraduate + 3 PT School). DPT salary is about $45-65/ per hour where in my area. Average salary in my state(NJ) for DPT’s in 2009 was $83,780. DPT’s can own and operate their own private practice and can earn salaries well over $100,000. PTA’s earn a salary of about $40,000-45,000 per year.
