Dear Colleagues,

With great excitement and sincere gratitude, we present to you this issue of Physiotherapia Croatica Supplement — the official, open-access, peer-reviewed journal of the Croatian Society of Physiotherapists.

As Editor of this journal, I am honored to be part of a project that represents a significant milestone in the continued growth and development of our Society, and in the advancement of physiotherapy in Croatia and beyond.

The mission of the Editorial Board is to shape a journal that showcases the very best of our profession — one that promotes the exchange of ideas, stimulates scientific discussion, and fosters a vibrant community of practice. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to improved patient outcomes through knowledge-sharing and collaboration. We are committed to publishing a diverse range of content, including original research, systematic reviews, case reports, meta-analyses, editorials, and more. In doing so, we hope to support clinicians, researchers, educators, and students alike.

We firmly believe that Physiotherapia Croatica Supplement has the potential to grow into a respected and essential publication within the global physiotherapy landscape. But this vision can only become reality with your active involvement. We invite you — our esteemed colleagues and experts — to submit your work, share your insights, and engage with us in shaping a journal that truly reflects the strength and innovation of our field.

Thank you for your continued support and for believing in this initiative. Together, we can build a journal that stands as a strong and influential voice for physiotherapy.

Warm regards,

Assist. Prof. Snježana Benko Meštrović, PhD, MSc
Editor, Physiotherapia Croatica Supplement
