    03 PNF Techniques Part 1

    Uploaded by

    CHANGEZ KHAN SARDAR
    This document discusses various PNF techniques including rhythmic initiation, combination of isometrics, and reversal of antagonists. Rhythmic initiation uses passive and resisted motion to improve range of motion. Combination of isometrics performs concentric, eccentric, and stabilizing contractions without relaxation. Reversal of antagonists uses dynamic, stabilizing, and rhythmic contractions to switch between agonists and antagonists, improving strength and coordination. Videos are provided as examples and students are assigned to make demonstration videos applying these techniques.

    PNF- TECHNIQUES

    Dr. Seema Gul (PT)


    DPT-MSPT(Neurological)
    RHYTHMIC INITIATION
    Rhythmic motion of the limb or body through the
    desired range, starting with passive motion and
    progressing to active resisted movement

    At the end the patient should make the motion


    independently
    ACTIVITY
     For practical demonstration watch the following link

     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03YaX9qXtdw&t=4
    s
    ASSIGNMENT
     Make a video showing training for wrist flexion using
    rhythmic initiation technique
    COMBINATION OF ISOTONICS
    (DESCRIBED BY GREGG JOHNSON AND VICKY SALIBA)

    Combined concentric, eccentric, and stabilizing


    contractions of one group of muscles (agonists)
    without relaxation.

    For treatment, start where the patient has the most strength
    or best coordination.
    GOALS
     Active control of motion
     Coordination

     Increase the active range of motion

     Strengthen

     Functional training in eccentric control of movement


    ACTIVITY
     Watch the following link
     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOfB7yF_aHE&t=2
    s
    ASSIGNMENT
     Make a video showing training for wrist flexion using
    rhythmic initiation technique
    REVERSAL OF ANTAGONISTS
     Dynamic Reversals (Incorporates Slow Reversal)

    Active motion changing from one direction (agonist) to the opposite


    (antagonist) without pause or relaxation.

    In normal life we oft en see this kind of muscle activity: throwing a


    ball, bicycling, walking etc.
    GOALS
     Increase active range of motion
     Increase strength

     Develop coordination (smooth reversal of motion)

     Prevent or reduce fatigue

     Increase endurance

     Decrease muscle tone


    REVERSAL OF ANTAGONISTS
     Stabilizing Reversals
    Alternating isotonic contractions opposed by enough resistance to
    prevent motion. The command is a dynamic command (“push against
    my hands”, or “don’t let me push you”) and the therapist allows only a
    very small movement
    REVERSAL OF ANTAGONISTS
     Rhythmic Stabilization

    Alternating isometric contractions against resistance, no


    motion intended
    ACTIVITY
     Watch the following link
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upxRj3ySJgU&t=4s
    ASSIGNMENT
     Make a video showing all the type of reversal of
    antagonist on patient/model performing BRIDGING
    exercise
    LAST DATE OF SUBMISSION
     31ST MAY 2020
     VIA WHATSAPP NUMBER
