Which physical therapy specialty pays the most

• Sports Medicine Specialist
• There is a reason why this is the highest paying
  PT specialist. The patients that you are going to
  handle are often athletes. Being those who are
  one of the fittest, your task is to make things
  happen. Not only you would treat injuries
  experienced in the course of their career but
  also preventative care so such injuries would be
  avoided. You can encounter injuries like the
  Compartment Syndrome for this is one of the most
  common issues among athletes. This is also a
  highly specialized position so you should also
  expect that the salary is one of the highest at
  76, 689 a year. Also, there is rapid growth and
  demand for this kind of specialization as many
  athletes are too focused on their sports career.
  They may even employ the best PT for the job so
  they avoid injuries and perform to the best of
  their abilities.
