Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is focused on new trends in physical therapy and exercise to treat different musculoskeletal disorders. In recent years, great advances have been made in the field of manual therapy, dry needling, neurodynamics, instrumental techniques and therapeutic exercise at clinical and research levels. In this Special Issue, we would like to continue collaborating with the advancement in the field of physical therapy to promote Evidence-Based Physiotherapy among clinicians and researchers.
Researchers and clinicians should use Evidence-Based Physiotherapy, which requires scientific proof. So, we would like you to contribute your research about physical therapy and/or exercise in musculoskeletal disorders to this Special Issue. This Special Issue of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health aims to attract high-quality research on a wide range of physical therapy methods such as manual therapy, dry needling, diacutaneous fibrolysis, neurodynamics, education, or exercise therapy among others in different musculoskeletal disorders. We also expect other types of study designs based on methods of examination and assessment in different patients with musculoskeletal disorders.
Study design can include:
- Case studies
- Cross-sectional studies
- Clinical trials
- Systematic reviews
- Meta-analysis
- Narrative or scoping reviews
