ProTherapy currently has 10 travel therapy openings in Iowa, which is too few in any one discipline to report a median. Advertised weekly rates on those assignments: travel COTA 4 ($1,460–$1,460); travel PT 3 ($2,130–$2,340); travel PTA 3 ($1,460–$1,460).
Because these are small counts, treat them as the range actually on offer in Iowa right now rather than as a settled rate for the state. For a figure with more assignments behind it, the national medians below cover every open ProTherapy contract in that discipline.
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 Iowa market, and they move as contracts fill. Updated 2026-09-09.
