Does it look really bad to professional schools (eg. physiotherapy) if I graduate late by one summer/ semester? I'm missing two courses, but I don't want to overload next semester as it will have an adverse effect on my gpa

I don't think it matters if you are done by the time you start graduate school. I know some even accept you with the condition that you finish a pre-req over the summer.

lol no. I recommend you spend sometime with professionals and look at some professionals CVs.
This question reminds me of "Will med school accept me if they see I also went to college before university"

I've never heard of it being a disadvantage of any sort, because as long as you have your degree by the time you're starting the grad program, that's all they need.
