MOT course could be used to specialize in the following disciplines-

• Paediatrics
• Rehabilitation Science
• Orthopaedics

These are two different branches. In India, there are many medical college for Physiotherapy only. And, in physiotherapy lots of scope in India as well as Foreign. You can set up a clinic after completing Physiotherapy, but in occupational therapy you may get a bit difficulty to set up, because occupational therapy is less known and not Fully evolved yet.

So, Physiotherapy is better for future, occupational therapy also has good scope. occupational therapists getting better salary then physio as they have not been as saturated like physio.
