APTA's official journal is recognized worldwide for its scholarly contributions to the profession. Physical Therapy (PTJ) documents basic and applied knowledge related to physical therapy, provides evidence to guide clinical decision making, publishes a variety of research that is relevant to the field, and serves as a forum for diverse opinions that are based in scholarly arguments. Like the profession it serves, PTJ strives to enhance the function, health, and well-being of all members of society.

Go Green
By Opting Out of Print
APTA has made it easier
than ever to help the environment and cut down on clutter. You can “opt
out” of receiving Physical Therapy (PTJ) and
PT Magazine in print each month simply by logging on to apta.org.
You’ll still have access to your publications online and can reference
current and archived issues 24/7/365—without digging through boxes in
your basement.
Why go green? Besides being
conscious of our environmental resources and making more room for yourself,
you’ll find PTJ Online full of features
not possible in print.
To go green, go apta.org,
select “myAPTA” from the horizontal navigation menu (you’ll
be asked to login, if you haven’t already done so), then proceed to “My
Profile.” Click on the “Email & Publications” tab, choose
your “opt out” preferences and save.

Subscriptions Help
If You’ve Already Joined APTA or Submitted a Subscription Request
Thank you for
joining/subscribing! PTJ Online is hosted by HighWire Press,
not by APTA. There is only one more thing you need to do to get full text online
the first time: you need to “activate” (or “turn on”) your online access. So,
if you are a NEW member or subscriber, please click on “Activate”
below so that the HighWire system will “recognize” you if you go
directly to PTJ Online in the future. Please use the SAME PASSWORD
that you use for APTA’s Web site. That way, if you are already logged
on at APTA’s Web site and you decide you want to visit PTJ Online,
you can click on the “PTJ” link from APTA’s Web site and HighWire
will recognize your login right away. You need only do this once!
