Physical Therapist Jobs in Hawaii: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a physical therapist in Hawaii?

You must hold a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from an accredited program, pass the National Physical Therapy Examination, and obtain a license from the Hawaii Physical Therapy Board before practicing in the state. Hawaii does not participate in a PT licensure compact, so out-of-state licensees must apply directly to the Hawaii Board for a full Hawaii license. Applications are submitted through the Hawaii Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs Professional and Vocational Licensing division.

How much do physical therapists make in Hawaii?

Physical therapists in Hawaii earn a median of about $101,700 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $78,630 for the lowest 10% to over $123,280 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire physical therapists in Hawaii?

Hawaii physical therapist roles are posted by Stern At Home Therapy, Always Best Care Senior Services, and HiredFirst and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hawaii's hiring is anchored by its major integrated health systems and a network of outpatient clinics serving both residents and the state's large visitor and active-duty military populations.

Which Hawaii cities have the most physical therapist jobs?

Honolulu, Hilo, and Kīhei account for the largest share of physical therapist openings in Hawaii. Honolulu dominates because it is home to the state's largest hospital systems and the highest concentration of outpatient and rehabilitation clinics, while Hilo and Kailua-Kona reflect growing demand on the Big Island driven by expanding regional medical facilities and an aging community population.

Are there remote physical therapist jobs in Hawaii?

Yes, but they're rare. Physical therapy is a hands-on clinical role, so the vast majority of positions require in-person patient care. About 13% of physical therapist openings tied to Hawaii are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those roles are typically limited to telehealth consultations, care coordination, or utilization review functions rather than direct treatment.

How can I get hired as a physical therapist in Hawaii with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying for new-graduate or residency positions at Hawaii Pacific Health or The Queen's Health Systems, both of which periodically run structured new-grad programs in orthopedics and acute care. Physical therapy aide and physical therapy technician roles at outpatient clinics on Oahu and the Big Island are common lateral entry points that allow you to build Hawaii-specific clinical exposure. Completing your Hawaii Physical Therapy Board licensure before you apply, even without local work history, gives you a clear hiring advantage over candidates who are still awaiting licensure.

Where can I find and apply to physical therapist jobs in Hawaii?

You can find and apply to physical therapist jobs in Hawaii on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring in the state right now. Search the listings, find the roles that match your specialty and experience level, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
