Aims & Scope

The Physical Treatments Journal is a double-blind peer reviewed journal published in English language since 2012. The journal publishes original research with implications for physical therapy, from basic foundations leading to treatment enhancement, to applied treatment protocols and techniques that serve to enhance the understanding of physical therapy. Other types of articles adding to the knowledge content of physical therapy and related fields, such as systematic or narrative reviews, educational, theoretical or debate articles, brief reports, case histories or single case studies are also welcome.

Physical Treatments is a peer-reviewed journal accepting articles with sound methodologies which add enough to the literature to be published in his journal.
