PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) is an approach to therapeutic exercise that therapists worldwide have found effective for treating patients with a wide range of diagnoses. The approach presented in this richly illustrated guide is based on the concepts set out by Dr. Herman Kabat and taught by Margaret Knott.
This edition demonstrates how the principles of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and aspects of motor learning and motor control are applied in modern PNF evaluation and treatment. This textbook provides a systematic and easily accessible guide to learning and understanding PNF.
