This is a lecture and hands-on class. Students will learn to perform isolated PNF for the entire body and help patients, athletes, and clients make quick gains in range of motion to reduce pain, help recover from injuries, improve performance, and improve all around movement. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation is an advanced form of flexibility training involving the stretching and contraction of the targeted muscle group. Originally developed for rehabilitation, it is also excellent for targeting specific muscles and various fibers within certain muscles to increase flexibility, ROM and improving muscular strength. By using this method, therapists not only gain tremendous improvement in their patients, but at the same time can reduce the strains on their own body helping to preserve and extend their career. What to bring: loose and light clothing such as workout wear, sweatpants, T-shirts, shorts, medical scrubs.
