AI lightens exercise prescription, posture analysis, and treatment notes, but hands-on treatment, the NPTE and state licensure, and rehab demand from an aging population hold up hiring. Medicare payment cuts and student debt are separate from AI.

Major lifespan is the time left until AI is expected to start shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates. It doesn’t mean the major will disappear or that everyone will lose their job.
