Such a great video on PNF for upper limb. Continue uploading Physiotherapy-related videos for better use of those already practicing Physiotherapy and also the upcoming physios. Such an educational piece.

How can this helps the upper extremities?

[@physicaltherapyeducationso4585]

Adrian, PNF benefits the patient by working on building strength and neuromuscular awareness and control of the upper extremity. In addition, because PNF movements occur in a diagonal pattern they engage a large group of upper extremity muscles in the same way we use the arm for function. Here is a link that provides more information on the general concept of PNF. my.instituteofphysicalart.com/media/ipa/pdf2/pnf_article.pdf
