Physical & Occupational Therapy in Melrose, MA

Melrose has 46 licensed therapists with a registered practice address, across 2 licence types.

With a population of 29,597, that works out to 15.5 providers per 10,000 residents. Density is a rough measure: providers register a practice address, which may be a clinic serving a much wider area than the city itself.

That puts Melrose close to the middle for Massachusetts. Expect to contact several providers rather than one, and to find that availability rather than choice is the binding constraint.

Of the 229 places in Massachusetts with at least one registered provider, Melrose ranks 97th by count.

Just over half of the licensed therapists here — 80% — hold the same licence, physical therapist. Where one type dominates like this, the practical question is less which letters someone has than whether they work with what you are bringing to them.

One caveat on reading these numbers: the registry records where a provider registered an address, not where they see clients day to day, and addresses are not always kept current. It also says nothing about whether someone is taking new clients.
