Beschreibung
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) has been found effective for treating patients with a wide range of diagnoses. This richly illustrated guide presents an approach based on the concepts set out by Dr. Herman Kabat and taught by Margaret Knott. This fully revised third edition demonstrates how the principles of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and aspects of motor learning and motor control (from "hands-on" to "hands-off" management) are applied in modern PNF evaluation and treatment. In addition, the section on Activities of Daily Living has been expanded with new photos and more in-depth explanatory text.
Featuring a new, fresh design and layout, this edition presents the philosophy, basic procedures and treatment patterns of PNF in a clearly structured way. It provides a systematic and easily accessible guide to learning and understanding PNF as a practical tool and using it to full effect in patient treatment.
Fully illustrated guide: approx. 560 photos Focus on practical aspects of patient evaluation and treatment New for this edition: ICF and Motor Learning applied in PNF New textbook design for more user-friendly experience Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
