Travel Therapy Salary in Virginia
For a travel PT on contract in Virginia, the state issues PT Compact privileges (PT Compact Commission), so a travel PT licensed in another compact state can work there on a privilege instead of a new Virginia license.

A travel PT in Virginia earns a median of $2,190 per week on current ProTherapy assignments, with individual contracts ranging from $2,130 to $2,770. That median is drawn from 22 open travel PT assignments in Virginia as of 2026-10-05.
Medians for the other disciplines with enough Virginia openings to report one: travel PTA $1,540 (from 11 openings); travel SLP $2,130 (from 6 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 Virginia openings to publish a median for: travel OT 3 ($2,130–$2,300); travel COTA 1 ($1,460–$1,460). 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 Virginia market, and they move as contracts fill. Updated 2026-10-05.
