Journal ArticleDOI
Manual mobilization of the wrist: a pilot study in rehabilitation of patients with a chronic hemiplegic hand post-stroke.
TL;DR: This study suggests that manual mobilization of the wrist has a positive influence on the recovery of the hemiplegic hand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scapula motor control training with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation in chronic subacromial impingement syndrome: A case report.
TL;DR: PNF provided an opportunity for motor control training, restored altered movement patterns in the patient's daily life activities and addressed motor learning effects and structural impairments in a patient who was not responsive to standard physiotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motor learning with the PNF-concept, an alternative to constrained induced movement therapy in a patient after a stroke; a case report
TL;DR: A male patient, 68 years of age, developed impairments in his right arm and hand, such as loss of range of motion and strength besides spasticity after a stroke, which resulted in a loss of dexterity in his affected right side and in "disuse" of that arm andhand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorrect use of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation-techniques and principles, a response to: Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation training improves pain-related and balance outcomes in working-age patients with chronic low back pain: a randomized controlled trial.
Journal ArticleDOI
PNF- based Gait Rehabilitation-training after a Total Hip Arthroplasty in congenital pelvic malformation; A case report.
TL;DR: In this article, a male, 44 years of age, physically active laborer was treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA) after hip dysplasia, with comorbid missing pubic symphysis.
