Honest answers

Physiotherapy in Germany, your questions

The questions Indian physiotherapists ask us most.

Often yes. Many physiotherapists begin in Germany as a therapy assistant and earn a salary while completing recognition (an adaptation period or knowledge test). We guide you through which route fits your profile.

Usually B1 to begin the recognition and visa process, and B2 to take up the full role and treat patients confidently. We teach you from A1, around your schedule.

In most cases yes. The authority compares your training and clinical hours (Germany expects around 4,500) to its standard. If there's a gap, you complete an adaptation period or knowledge test, both of which we help you prepare for.

Typically 12–18 months with the right guidance. The biggest variable is how quickly you progress in German, which is why we recommend starting classes early.

Family reunification is generally possible, subject to the legal requirements. Many physiotherapists build a long-term life in Germany with their families.

We're honest: no ethical agency can "guarantee" a job. What we do is prepare you properly, connect you with real German employers, and support you through recognition, language and visa so you're a strong, hireable candidate.
