Memahami teknik dasar terapi PNF
Goals Memahami macam – macam teknik PNF
Menerapkan teknik terapi PNF dalam kondisi tertentu
Proprioceptive: Having to do with any of the sensory receptors that
give information concerning movement and position of the body
Neuromuscular: Involving the nerves and muscles
Facilitation: Making easier
to PNF The primary goal of all treatment is to help patients achieve their
highest level of function.
Stretch
• The use of muscle elongation
Basic Approximation
• Gentle compression of joint surface to stimulate contraction,
procedures and muscle mechanoreceptors
with PNF Verbal commands
patterns • to help maintain the patient’s attention.
Visual Cues
• The patient is asked to follow the movement of a limb to
further enhance control of movement throughout the ROM.
Diagonal
The scapular • anterior elevation – posterior depression
Motion and pelvic: • posterior elevation – anterior depression.
extremity
diagonal Ending position:
Ending position:
hip extension, abduction, and
internal rotation;
knee extension or flexion;
ankle plantarflexion and eversion;
and toe flexion.
Ending position:
hip flexion, abduction, and internal
rotation;
knee flexion (or extension);
ankle dorsiflexion and eversion;
and toe extension.
Ending position:
hip extension, adduction, and
external rotation;
knee extension;
ankle plantarflexion and inversion;
and toe flexion.
Indirect
The technique uses contraction
of the agonistic muscles instead
of the shortened muscles.
