A travel PT in Alabama earns a median of $2,340 per week on current ProTherapy assignments, with individual contracts ranging from $2,130 to $2,340. That median is drawn from 11 open travel PT assignments in Alabama as of 2026-11-08.
Too few current Alabama openings to publish a median for: travel SLP 4 ($2,160–$2,280); travel PTA 2 ($1,540–$1,600); travel COTA 1 ($1,510–$1,510). Those are advertised ranges across a handful of assignments, not averages.
All figures are advertised weekly gross pay on ProTherapy travel contracts — the rate before taxes, inclusive of any housing and meal stipends in the package. They describe ProTherapy’s own open assignments, not a survey of the whole Alabama market, and they move as contracts fill. Updated 2026-11-08.
