Re: Physiotherapy Status In India

Hi,

Out of interest, how much would it cost to see a private physiotherapist?

I am from Australia and i have a patient from Mumbai who has ased me to come over and run periodic clinics, which would be nice because would love to see India etc but I also want to earn at least what i do here.

I would charge about AUD$80-100/half an hour or AUD$160-200/hour. XE.com tells me this is between ~2800INR to 3500INR or USD$120 - 160/hour. Would there be a market for this?

Obviously you would have to take my word that i am good enough to charge this amount of money!! My patient seems to think that it is possible due to the large numbers of millionaires in india (83000 according to some sources).

Is this all possible? If it is, then it makes helping underpriviledged people in India possible as well (I would have to cover my costs of travelling, accomodation, food and loss of income from my regular practice/job to do a trip like that).

please let me know

Thanks
