Vol. 7 No. 2 (2026): Advances in Physiotherapy: Clinical Interventions and Functional Outcomes Across Lifespan

This special issue, “Advances in Physiotherapy: Clinical Interventions and Functional Outcomes Across Lifespan,” presents contemporary evidence on physiotherapy practices across diverse populations, ranging from pediatric to geriatric groups, with a focus on neuromusculoskeletal rehabilitation, balance and motor control, neurological recovery, maternal and child health, and community-based functional screening. The included studies explore the effectiveness of various clinical and exercise-based interventions, as well as observational and review-based evidence, in improving pain, balance, mobility, functional capacity, and quality of life. Collectively, these contributions highlight the growing role of physiotherapy in integrating evidence-based clinical management with functional and public health outcomes across the lifespan.
