Physiotherapy Canada (PTC)

Physiotherapy Canada (PTC) meets the diverse needs of national and international readers and serves as a key repository of inquiries, evidence and advances in the practice of physiotherapy. Physiotherapy Canada stands as a pivotal hub for evidence pertinent to the field of physiotherapy. As the exclusive journal dedicated to this discipline in Canada, our mission is to address the diverse needs of both Canadian and international audiences by disseminating cutting-edge research and scholarly contributions that drive progress in the profession’s scientific underpinnings, clinical methodologies, and educational strategies. We specialize in publishing original qualitative and quantitative research, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, clinical practice guidelines, and case reports. Our commitment extends to delivering key messages and clinical commentaries that facilitate the translation and mobilization of knowledge throughout the spectrum of physiotherapy practice. Through guest editorials, we provide a platform for critical discourse and debate, while special series expose readers to emerging developments in targeted areas of interest. With Canada’s rich tapestry of geography and culture, Physiotherapy Canada offers distinctive perspectives on physiotherapy practice that intersect current interest in equity, diversity, and inclusion. Service delivery in the world’s second-largest land mass presents unique challenges in terms of distance and climate. Canada’s multicultural identity with significant Indigenous populations are reflected in manuscripts published in Physiotherapy Canada in either of Canada’s official languages. These distinguishing features, coupled with Canada’s predominantly public health care system, provide opportunities for nuanced and insightful research findings in North American and global contexts. Physiotherapy Canada, the official journal of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association, was founded in 1948.
