Overview
Physiotherapy and allied health businesses typically trade at 3×–6× EBITDA. A mix of insurance-funded and private-pay patients, diversified service lines including sports rehabilitation and Pilates, and multiple clinic locations support the upper end. Businesses with HCPC-registered practitioners and an established insurance-funded pipeline from major health insurers attract stronger buyer interest. Clinician key person dependency is the primary valuation risk.
