Assisted stretching technique shown here is known as PNF stretching.
(Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation)
What does that mean exactly? ⤵️
It's an advanced stretching technique that combines muscle contraction and relaxation to improve flexibility, increase range of motion, and reduce muscle tightness.
PNF is commonly used by physical therapists, athletic trainers, and assisted stretching professionals.
Benefits of PNF stretching
Improved flexibility: Can increase joint range of motion.
Reduced muscle tightness: Helps clients tolerate stretching more comfortably.
Improved mobility: Useful for athletes and people with restricted movement.
Neuromuscular control: Encourages coordinated muscle activation and relaxation.
Now for this particular client, this was his first experience with this technique and you can see him get more range of motion immediately.
We don’t start you out with this method until you have some experience with assisted stretching and we understand what your body needs!
