Neuromuscular Facilitation

Neuromuscular facilitation is a therapeutic technique used to improve muscle function and movement. It involves specific exercises and stimuli that enhance communication between your nerves and muscles, helping to re-train muscles to move more effectively. By activating or relaxing certain muscles, this method can reduce tightness, improve flexibility, and restore strength, often used in rehabilitation after injury or illness. It's a guided process that leverages the nervous system’s ability to adapt, ultimately promoting better control and coordination of movement through targeted, purposeful activity.
