Hand Therapy is a highly regarded peer-reviewed journal published by SAGE Publishing, dedicated to clinical excellence and research in the field of hand and upper limb rehabilitation. Formerly known as the British Journal of Hand Therapy, it evolved into an internationally recognised publication and serves as the official journal of both the British Association of Hand Therapists (BAHT) and the European Federation of Societies for Hand Therapy (EFSHT).
The journal provides a respected platform for hand therapists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and other specialists involved in upper extremity care. It is committed to disseminating original research, clinical studies, systematic reviews, and concise reports that bridge the gap between theory and clinical practice, supporting evidence-based advancement in hand therapy worldwide.
Under the guidance of an international editorial board composed of leading clinicians, researchers, and academics in the field, Hand Therapy upholds rigorous peer-review standards to ensure scientific quality and clinical relevance. The journal’s 5-year impact factor (1.1) is reflecting its growing standards, increased readership, international submissions, and the core academic-level context. By covering a broad spectrum of topics relevant to upper limb function and recovery, it continues to shape best practice within hand therapy.
