Achieving Advanced Levels of Functional Mobility with PNF Techniques

Course overview

Bed assistance and the utilization of bed assist rails, handles, and mobility aids do not always have to be permanent after a significant injury. Physical and occupational therapists combine various rehabilitation techniques to work strength, coordination, and endurance to optimize functional movement. Advanced PNF techniques are an essential tool to have in your toolbox. By incorporating PNF into a well-developed rehab plan, the patient utilizes a comprehensive neuromuscular approach to promote functional movement.
