Physical therapists, like doctors, nurses, and massage therapists are licensed by state agencies. So, if you move to another state, you will have to reapply for a license in that sate you wish to practice. There are a few states that do not have state licensure for massage, then you will have to apply to the local governing agency.

I am a chiropractor and can tell you that the answer is an unequivival no. A chiropractor cannot work as a licensed physical therapy assistant unless they are licensed as a physical therapist or physical therapy assistant. Chiropractors can practice physiotherapy(P.T) but cannot practice physcical therapy(P.T). In the same way, physical therapists can sometimes manipulate the spine but they can't practice chiropractic unless they are also a licensed chiropractor. Medicare requires that a P.T or P.T.A perform the physical therapy -not a chiropractor.
