Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation
The reason for choosing the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique is that it increases the hip flexion angle more than static stretching. Participants first lay down on the stretcher in a supine position. Then, the participant's lower extremity was lifted straight until the physiotherapist felt resistance. After reaching this position, the participant was asked to try to extend his lower extremity straight with half of his strength. After 10 seconds, the participant was given time to relax and after the participant relaxed, the lower extremity was brought to the new range of motion. This process was applied 3 times.
