The International Journal of Telerehabilitation (IJT) is a biannual journal dedicated to advancing telerehabilitation by disseminating information about current research and practices. The journal is PubMed indexed, and was recently accepted into Scopus, with indexing to follow. 
Issue Overview
The current issue of the multi-disciplinary International Journal of Telerehabilitation (IJT) explores five diverse topics that fall under the unifying umbrella of telerehabilitation: telehealth privacy and security; the usability of an immersive augmented reality based system with haptics for synchronous remote musculoskeletal examination; parent perspectives of occupational therapy delivered through telehealth; the use of telehealth in early intervention in Colorado; and the use of  telerehabilitation as an effective platform to help manage Low-Back Pain (LBP). We thank our authors and are honored to publish their work.
