| Description |
If all you remember about Proprioceptive
Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is random
“diagonal patterns,” then this course is for you.
PNF can be a powerful approach when the
techniques are creatively applied to clinical
problems. Dr. Massery’s extensive background
in PNF, along with 40 years of clinical
refinements, makes her uniquely qualified to
teach PNF in today’s evidence-based practice
environment. The purpose of this course is to
apply current PNF research, philosophy and
treatment concepts to pediatric and adult
patients with neuromuscular, musculoskeletal,
and/or cardiopulmonary conditions. The
extensive use of hands-on labs; dissection of
functional tasks to facilitate goal-directed
movements; use of techniques with specific
clinical cases; and a live patient demonstration,
will “refresh” PNF for today’s practitioner.
Participants will leave with sharpened skills and
an abundance of new ideas on the immediate
application of PNF to their practice.
