PNF stretching is a technique that enhances range of motion through specific muscle stretching and contractions, activating muscle responses like the stretch reflex and reciprocal inhibition.
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching is a technique that involves a sequence of stretching and contracting muscles to improve range of motion by targeting neuromuscular structures for relaxation of reflexive activity. During the stretch, muscle spindles elicit responses such as the stretch reflex and reciprocal inhibition. PNF stretching typically requires a knowledgeable partner and involves movements like contract-relax stretch.
