Aim
The aim of ICMERD-International Journal of Physiotherapy (ICMERD-IJPHY) is to provide a high-quality platform for the dissemination of original research, reviews, and clinical studies in the field of physiotherapy. The journal seeks to promote evidence-based practice, innovation, and interdisciplinary collaboration among physiotherapists, healthcare professionals, and researchers worldwide. By publishing cutting-edge research and clinical insights, ICMERD-IJPHY aims to enhance the understanding, prevention, and treatment of movement disorders and physical disabilities, ultimately improving patient care and rehabilitation outcomes.
Scope
ICMERD-IJPHY welcomes submissions from diverse areas of physiotherapy and rehabilitation science, including but not limited to:
✅ Musculoskeletal and Orthopedic Physiotherapy – Research on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders, including manual therapy, exercise therapy, and pain management.
✅ Neurological and Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation – Studies on the rehabilitation of patients with neurological and cardiopulmonary conditions, including stroke, Parkinson’s disease, and respiratory disorders.
✅ Sports and Exercise Physiotherapy – Research on sports injury prevention, treatment, and performance enhancement through physiotherapeutic interventions.
✅ Pediatric and Geriatric Physiotherapy – Studies focusing on physiotherapy for children and older adults, including developmental disorders, age-related conditions, and fall prevention.
✅ Manual Therapy and Movement Science – Research on hands-on therapy techniques, biomechanical assessments, and motor control strategies to enhance physical function.
✅ Pain Management and Rehabilitation – Insights into non-pharmacological approaches to pain relief and functional recovery in acute and chronic conditions.
✅ Tele-Physiotherapy and Digital Health – Exploration of the role of digital platforms, remote monitoring, and virtual rehabilitation in physiotherapy care.
✅ Education and Professional Development – Research on physiotherapy education, training methods, and professional development to improve clinical practice and knowledge dissemination.
ICMERD-IJPHY encourages interdisciplinary research and welcomes contributions from related fields such as occupational therapy, sports science, kinesiology, and rehabilitation engineering. The journal aims to foster a global exchange of knowledge and innovation to advance the field of physiotherapy and improve patient outcomes.
