About the Journal
Welcome
Kia ora koutou katoa. Welcome to the New Zealand Journal of Physiotherapy, the official journal of Physiotherapy New Zealand.
Since 1938, we have provided a professional research journal that showcases the amazing physiotherapy research happening in Aotearoa New Zealand and internationally. Much of our research has a specific Aotearoa New Zealand context, however, we also publish research on a wide variety of professional and clinical physiotherapy topics and content. We have been registered on Scopus since 2012, offering Open Access publication – all of our present and future journal articles are freely accessible and there are no author fees for publication. Welcome to our Journal, we hope you enjoy engaging with us in the promotion of great physiotherapy research.
