Ever heard of PNF stretching?
PNF stretching—short for Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation—is a powerful technique that enhances flexibility by combining gentle stretching with muscle activation. By alternating between stretching and contracting targeted muscles, it encourages the body to relax and release tension more effectively.
At Transcend Health and Well-Being, we incorporate PNF stretching into our evidence-based approach to treating tight lower back muscles—especially when tightness in the following areas is contributing:
• Hips
• Glutes
• Hamstrings
• Quads
• ITB (iliotibial band)
This technique not only helps improve range of motion but also boosts the effectiveness of remedial massage therapy. 💪
