PNF Stretching

PNF Stretching is a type of stretching that we do in the office. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation is the proper name for the technique. This type of stretching uses your own bodies neurology against itself. Trying to get the the muscles to relax we cause a contraction in the muscle we are trying to stretch. Then the muscle is relaxed allowing for further stretch and greater range of motion.
