Physical Therapist in Italy: read the median against a +15% outlook

The Italy national median for a physical therapist is 90.300 € a year. Among 2 metros with observed data, pay runs from about 58.800 € in Rome to 70.600 € in Milan (1.2×).

Physical therapists help patients recover movement and manage pain after injury or illness. Common screening skills include Rehabilitation, Anatomy, Assessment, and Empathy.

A modeled national band runs about 67.500 €–118.100 € around that midpoint. Licensing and immigration rules are independent of this cash sort. Employment outlook for the occupation is sketched at +15% over a decade — a national demand guess, not a hiring guarantee in every Italian city.

Milan sits -22% vs the national median; Rome sits -35%. Relocating inside Italy for this title can move cash more than a small raise at the same desk. Open a city page for take-home and rent context — this national page is the map, not the offer.

Italy shows about 1.5% CPI in 2025. A physical therapist raise that trails inflation is a real-pay cut even if it still beats last year’s peers. This occupation is also covered in 39 other countries — useful for remote or relocation shortlists, after FX and local tax. Nearby healthcare titles on this site include Registered Nurse, Nurse Practitioner, Physician, and Pharmacist.
