Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF)

Objectives: Describe a brief history of PNF. Define PNF. List the purposes of PNF. Be able to apply PNF when working with patients.

Brief History of PNF ¹ Mid-1940’s: Neurophysiologist Dr. Herman Kabat developed PNF to rehabilitate the muscles of polio patients 1950’s: techniques were further developed with Maggie Knott and Dr. Dorothy Voss Mid-1950’s: PNF work published in scientific journals 1960’s: Taught in Universities 1970’s: Used by athletes

What is PNF? Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF): is a manual therapy approach that uses proprioceptive input to improve neuromuscular function during human movement. ¹

Purpose of PNF PNF can be used to enhance muscle strength and endurance, balance and posture, as well as stability and mobility by adding resistance during concentric, eccentric and isometric muscle actions. Neuromuscular function is enhanced during stretching techniques, thus improving joint range of motion and muscle flexibility. ¹ Used to improve functional performance, coordinated patterns of movement and to treat patients with both neuromuscular or musculoskeletal deficits. ²

Methods LE D1 ³ LE D2 ⁴ UE D1 ⁵ UE D2 ⁶

PNF Techniques ² Rhythmic Initiation (RI) Hold-Relax (HR) Contract-Relax (CR) Hold-Relax-Active Contraction (HRAC)

Research ⁷ Research has been conducted on the effectiveness of PNF stretching on TKA patients with facilitating the return of knee ROM. Findings show results might be affected by wound pain during the isometric contraction in the early post-operative phase.
