This video describes and shows the proper technique to perform the four basic upper extremity PNF patterns (D1 Flexion, D1 Extension, D2 Flexion and D2 Exten...
In the video, I'll be talking about PNF Patterns: The 4 types:- Diagonal 1 Upper Extremity (D1 UE) - Diagonal 2 Upper Extremity (D2 UE)- Diagonal 1 Lower Ext...
In this video I will be demonstrating PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) patterns for both the UE (shoulder) and the LE (leg). Chapters0:00 - St...
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is a therapeutic approach defined as promoting the response of the nerve impulses to recruit muscles through stimulation of the proprioceptors (e.g. Muscle spindle and Golgi Tendon Organs) in addition to other sensory stimuli (tactile, visual or verbal) in the beginning (i.e. at cognitive phase of ...
PNF Basic Procedures. Patterns of Movement: normal activity occurs in synergistic and functional movement patterns. UE Diagonal 1; UE Diagonal 2; LE Diagonal 1; LE Diagonal 2; Trunk patterns include chop and lift patterns, bilateral lower extremity (LE) patterns, scapula and pelvis pat- terns, and head/neck patterns.
Simple and comprehensive organization of all PNF principles and techniques. High definition video and instructions for interventions using PNF organized in the following manner: Philosophy. Basic principles. Techniques. Patterns. Rolling. Progression. Treatment in sitting. PNF Gait. Case study
PNF Philosophy. 1. Positive approach: no pain, achievable tasks, set up for success, direct and indirect treatment, strong start. 2. Highest functional level: functional approach, ICF, include treatment on body structure level and activity level. 3. Mobilize potential by intensive training: active participation, motor learning, self training.
