Passive & PNF Stretching to the Quads - In treatment stretching

Dawn Morse of Core Elements Training demonstrates, treatment couch based, passive and PNF stretching to the quadriceps region.
These techniques can be used within the middle of a wider sports massage treatment, or at the end of the treatment, with the aim of lengthening the muscle group.
PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) is an excellent way to lengthen muscle tissue, to reduce muscular tension and to help restore range of motion and tissue health, and can be used at any stage within a wider soft tissue treatment.
These are examples of the techniques covered in Core Elements accredited, Level 4 Sports Massage Diploma, which is available as a face to face, and bended learning course, at our training centre in Swindon, Wiltshire (UK).
Core Elements Training delivers a range of accredited Sports Massage and Sports Therapy based qualifications and short courses.

How do you do a modified stretch on clients with knee replacements?

Hi 👋
focus fist on gradually bring the heal towards the bottom, without any lift at the hip.
Plus use constant communication, to check for any discomfort.
Hope this helps.
