Hi

One thing to think about is how quickly physiotherapy education is evolving. In the US a doctorate in physical therapy (DPT) is now the main entry level qualification. In Australia there are already two doctorate programmes (Melbourne Uni and Bond Uni) and other countries are likely to follow suit in the near future. With the DPT you complete and Bachelors in biomedical science or something similar, then apply for the DPT once you graduate.

This is only relevant if you are interested in training in another country and would involve considerable resources on your part. However you should be aware of it. It could be that in a few years a Bachelors degree in physiotherapy will become obsolete. It would be a pity to go to the trouble of getting a Bachelors degree only to find in a very short time that the standard had been further raised.
