Anything with a strong scientific background for the bachelors degree. My father received his in biology. You also need a Doctorate of Physical Therapy as well.
A real physical therapist would need a degree in Physical therapy, I believe. It is usually not an easy degree to get and if you are looking into schools ( I know the University of Minnesota has a physical therapy school) they are extremely hard to get into. I hope you have high math and science grades. References :
I believe HKin is the most applicable, and it can also get you into med school if you happen to change your mind part way through. A two or four year teaching degree might be required ontop of the 4 year HKin degree. References :

You need to find a college which offers a physical therapy program. I am from New York and know that New York University has such a program. It has a program for both physical therapy and occupational therapy. There aren’t too many colleges which offer those programs and they are very competitive. You can search Barron’s College Guide – you can get it at your local Barnes and Nobles – which lists colleges which offer such a program. As for becoming a trainer, there is no particular degree requirement. By the way, there are 2 ways to earn a degree in physical therapy. You can pursue an undergraduate degree in physical therapy or you can first earn your bachelor’s degree in another subject and then enroll in a master’s program in physical therapy. It is not unheard of for someone to earn an B.A. in Social Sciences – or some other liberal arts major – and then enroll in a master’s program in physical therapy. References :
you wil be choosing from
