About the Book

From neurophysiological principles to assessment, techniques, and PNF patterns - this comprehensive practice and textbook guides you step by step through all aspects of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), helping you gain proficiency in this well-established therapeutic method. It covers the core principles of PNF, including its philosophy, the ICF model, motor learning, and more, while clearly explaining PNF patterns and their functional applications in a practice-oriented way. With over 640 illustrations, the book visualizes key techniques and treatment steps, complemented by numerous case studies, clinical tips, and end-of-chapter review questions to support your learning and everyday practice. This completely revised 6th edition features new case studies and expanded chapters on hemiplegia, scoliosis, and Parkinson's disease. It also includes updated information on the IPNFA(R), the latest scientific literature, and contributions from an international team of experienced IPNFA(R) instructors.
