autogenic inhibition

Question 21

indications for stretching and muscle relaxation

Answer 21

• reduce pain and its associated increase in muscle tone
• correct postural faults
• correct muscle imbalances to improve proper movement patterns
• regain normal ROM of soft tissues
• maintain/increase flexibility prior to and after strengthening exercises
• prevent risk of musculotendinous injury
