Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) – Good for Athletes to Those Suffering Chronic Pain
If you’re recovering from an injury, struggling with tight muscles, or looking to improve flexibility, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) might be the solution you need.
At West Side Comprehensive Chiropractic Care, we use PNF as part of our holistic approach to relieve pain, restore movement, and enhance physical performance.
What is PNF?
PNF is a stretching and muscle activation technique that improves flexibility, strength, and coordination by engaging both your muscles and nervous system. It’s more effective than static stretching and is often performed with assistance from a therapist.
Who Benefits from PNF?
PNF can help with a wide range of conditions, including:
- Chronic Muscle Tightness – Especially in hamstrings, hips, and shoulders
- Injury Recovery – Helps restore range of motion after sprains, tears, and surgeries
- Athletic Performance – Increases dynamic flexibility and muscular control
- Neurological Conditions – Supports movement and balance in stroke or Parkinson’s patients
- Aging & Balance Issues – Improves joint stability and reduces fall risk
Safe, Effective, Personalized
PNF is gentle, adaptable, and safe when guided by trained professionals. We often combine it with chiropractic care and movement therapy to get the best results for your body.
