This rehabilitation approach involves exercises and techniques aimed at improving communication between the brain and muscles. Neuromuscular re-education helps the body recover from nerve or muscle injuries and retrain the nervous system to control muscles more effectively.
Neuromuscular Re-education Techniques:
- Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF): A technique designed to increase the range of motion and strengthen muscles. It involves stretching and contracting the muscles through specific patterns of movement.
- Balance and Coordination Training: These exercises are used to retrain the brain and body to work together for better coordination, often involving activities like balance boards or stability balls.
