A lot of schools will offer a MSc in physiothrapy (Master of Science in Physiotherapy), not a Master of Physiotherapy. There’s no real difference, MSc is a masters degree and they’re both acceptable. If you want to be a physiotherapist though, after you get your masters you will likely have to write a test and go through a period of internship to get an official designation of a professional physiotherapist.
Like Sureshbala suggested, taking the TOEFL and GRE will be the first step. Afterwards, find a physiotherapy program that fits you. I wouldn’t worry about the doctorate until after you’re done the masters, if you find at that point that you want to get more education then another degree may be a good idea, but you might find that your masters is enough to get a good job.
Good luck.

Hi Swetha,
I will recommend you that don’t select the universities on the basis of ranking only. It is one of the factor not the deciding factor. Always check the course content, talk to the alumni to know about the faculty. Please check these universities: Oakland University Virginia Commonwealth University North Eastern University Marquette University Emory University University of Florida
