Your adventure in Switzerland
From the first meeting to your first working day in Switzerland and beyond, we guide you every step of the way as you move as a physiotherapist. This allows you to focus on what really matters. Join us on an adventure and prepare for your new job as a physiotherapist in Switzerland.
How we help you land your job in Switzerland
- €300,- travel reimbursement
- Tailored approach to your needs
- Personal contact and guidance
- Successful matches at 200+ organizations since 2018
- Possibility to follow a German course
Step 1: We help you get started
We start with an informal chat about where you stand now and what you’re looking for. Then we create a tailored plan. Moving to Switzerland as a physiotherapist requires some preparation. We arrange diploma recognition, help with learning German and keep track of everything for you.
On average, you’ll spend 3 to 6 months preparing, depending on your situation. This way you’ll never face surprises once you’ve made the move. With our help, you always know exactly where you stand.
Step 2: We match you with the right employer
You’ll have multiple conversations with different employers in Switzerland. You choose where you want to go. Plus, you’ll receive €300,- travel reimbursement from us to visit the practice and experience the atmosphere in Switzerland.
We help you think through the options, but you decide where you’ll sign. It’s a win for everyone: you find your dream job, the employer finds the perfect fit, and patient get care from a passionate physio.
Step 3: We help you settle in Switzerland
There you are, right in the Alps. Confident and worry-free. We help you arrange everything beforehand: your Swiss bank account, municipality registration, insurance and work permit. But also after you move: got any questions about how things work? Where to find the best place to live? How to meet new people easily? Just message or call us. We’re only happy when you feel at home.
These physios made the move to Switzerland with the help of Physiomatch.
A year ago, they were where you are now, full of doubts and questions. Now they're texting us photos of their weekend adventures. It's wonderful to see them having a good time. That's what we do at Physiomatch.

Bas’s Experience as a Physiotherapist in Switzerland
I’m Bas, and I have been working as a physiotherapist in Switzerland since 2018. In February 2017, I was in the final stages of my studies, and in my view, the job market in the Netherlands did not look very promising. By chance, I saw an interesting job vacancy online, and to be honest, I only realized later that it was in Switzerland. After a few interviews via phone and Skype, I visited Switzerland a few months later. Since I had never been there and knew little about life in the country, that was step one for me.
