Physiotherapist wanted in the Swiss Rheintal, near the Austrian border

For a modern and growing physiotherapy practice in the Swiss Rheintal, we are looking for a motivated physiotherapist who enjoys active therapy and wants to further develop within a professional and sporty team.

The practice has several locations in the Heerbrugg and Widnau region, close to the Austrian border. The locations are situated near each other and are easy to reach. The practice was founded a few years ago and has since developed into a successful organisation with a strong focus on quality, personal development and team spirit.

The practice

The practice works extensively with active therapy methods. You will have access to modern treatment equipment and a spacious fitness area, which is actively used during treatments. The patient population mainly consists of people with sports-related, orthopaedic and musculoskeletal complaints.

This makes the position especially interesting for physiotherapists who have an affinity with sport, exercise therapy, rehabilitation and an active treatment approach. There is also plenty of opportunity to learn from experienced colleagues and to further develop your skills in different treatment methods.

The practice is open from Monday to Friday. A pleasant working atmosphere, knowledge sharing and professional growth are highly valued.
