    Certificate in physiotherapy will make you a physiotherapy technician only. It will not allow you to run any clinic or practice it. Either, you will be eligible for the job of physiotherapy technician in any hospital or clinic or gym or sports center but you will be under a physiotherapy doctor if your certificate is valid from a recognised university.
    Just like ophthalmic technicians, ECG technicians, etc.

    Certificate course in physiotherapy is not valid for practicing in India. There is a Bachelors in physiotherapy programme after 10+ 2 (PCB). Its a 4 and 1/2 year degree programme including 6 months of internship in a hospital. So, no certificate course entitles you to practice physiotherapy, accept the degree courses.
    Thanks.
