Summary

the aim of the study was to investigate the immediate influence of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on cervical range of motion, strength and proprioception

Conditions

  • Proprioception
  • Neck

Interventions

OTHER

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Patterns

The participants were asked to sit on a chair, the therapist performed the pattern of movement himself then passively applied the pattern on the participant then asked the participant to perform the pattern, and the therapist observed and corrected the movement if it was done improperly.Then participants were told that the therapist will resist their movement, they were also told to keep breathing normally and to report any discomfort and/or pain.After mastering the pattern,the therapist placed one hand on the participant's mandibular and the other hand approximately between parietal and occipital bones to apply resistance through out the ROM, each pattern performed for 3 sets of 10 repetitions with 1-2-minute rest between sets.

OTHER

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation stretching

was done for 6 repetitions with hold for 6 seconds in position of stretch and sub maximal isometric contraction for 6 seconds, 1-2-minute rest was given before changing the target muscle group

OTHER

Passive range of motion

ineffective passive ROM for 10 repetitions for flexion, extension, right and left side bending and right and left rotation, it was done from neutral position to the limit of motion without causing any stretch to the muscle.
