Evaluation of Strength and Irradiated Movement Pattern Resulting from Trunk Motions of the Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

Abstract: Introduction. The proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is a physiotherapeutic concept based on muscle and joint proprioceptive stimulation. Among its principles, the irradiation is the reaction of the distinct regional muscle contractions to the position of the application of the motions. Objective. To investigate the presence of irradiated dorsiflexion and plantar flexion and the existing strength generated by them during application of PNF trunk motions. Methods. The study was conducted with 30 se… Show more

“…Irradiation is governed by the principle of training specificity (isometric or dynamic), and eccentric contractions cause greater strength gains when compared to concentric contractions [7,8]. This strength gain can be propagated to the ipsilateral agonist muscle, to contralateral limb [9] or having origin in trunk and irradiate for the lower and / or upper limbs [10].…”

“…Esse método de tratamento combina padrões de movimentos em diagonal, espiral e técnicas de facilitação neuromuscular, com objetivo de provocar respostas motoras e melhorar o controle e a função neuromuscular (ADLER, 2008 (MENINGRONI et al, 2009;GONTIJO et al, 2012;ABREU et al, 2015).…”

“…Ainda que diferentes autores, ao longo dos anos, tenham demonstrado os efeitos da irradiação de força contralateral durante os padrões de FNP (MARKOS, 1979;PINK, 1981;GONTIJO et al, 2012), ainda é preciso melhorar o entendimento sobre a influência dos diferentes níveis de esforço sobre a ativação da musculatura não exercitada, as diferenças no nível de força irradiada entre homens e mulheres, quais diagonais de FNP são capazes de gerar maior ativação da musculatura contralateral (ABREU et al, 2015) e o tempo de tratamento necessário para se obter os efeitos da irradiação de força sobre a musculatura não exercitada (MENINGRONI et al, 2009).…”
