11 Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is a dynamic approach to the evaluation and treatment of neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction with particular emphasis on the trunk. Over the past couple of decades substantial progress has been made in the conservative care of spinal problems.1-5 The shift towards evaluating and treating them from a functional or neuromuscular perspective enhances an...
متن کاملThe immediate effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation with taping on gait parameters in patients with chronic stroke
[Purpose] The purpose of the present study was to examine the immediate effects of simultaneous application of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) and elastic taping (T), and the removal of the elastic tape, on the gait parameters of stroke patients. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty stroke patients were divided into a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation group (PNFG, n=7), a tapin...
متن کاملOptimal Contraction Intensity during Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
Sheard, PW and Paine, TJ. Optimal contraction intensity during proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for maximal increase of range of motion. J Strength Cond Res 24(X): 000–000, 2009—An informal review of literature on the use of postisometric relaxation (PIR) type proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) indicates that the force of contraction requested from the athlete ranges from ...
متن کاملEffect of core strengthening with pelvic proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on trunk, balance, gait, and function in chronic stroke
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of core strengthening combined with pelvic proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) on trunk impairment, balance, gait, and functional ability of chronic stroke patients. Twenty-three participants with chronic stroke were recruited and randomly allocated to one of the two groups: core strengthening combined with pelvic PNF (group 1, n...
