Is Physical Therapist a regulated route in Bhutan?

Physical Therapist is a regulated profession in most countries: you usually register with a national health or nursing council and have your credentials verified before you can practise — a step that is separate from your degree. Confirm the licensing body for Bhutan early, because it often takes longer than the job search itself.
