Travel Therapy Salary in Michigan
For a travel PT on contract in Michigan, the state has joined the PT Compact but is not issuing privileges yet (PT Compact Commission), so a travel PT needs a Michigan license for now. To find a contract there: see the open PT, OT and SLP jobs in Michigan or Find my next contract.

A travel PT in Michigan earns a median of $2,340 per week on current ProTherapy assignments, with individual contracts ranging from $2,130 to $3,070. That median is drawn from 7 open travel PT assignments in Michigan as of 2026-10-05.
Medians for the other disciplines with enough Michigan openings to report one: travel COTA $1,460 (from 7 openings). Each figure covers only that discipline — travel therapy pay differs enough between PT, PTA, OT, COTA and SLP that a single blended number would not describe any of them.
Too few current Michigan openings to publish a median for: travel PTA 4 ($1,460–$1,540); travel OT 2 ($2,280–$2,280); travel SLP 2 ($2,280–$2,280). Those are advertised ranges across a handful of assignments, not averages.
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 Michigan market, and they move as contracts fill. Updated 2026-10-05.
