Summary
This study tested whether adding proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) exercises to standard care helps people who have had a total hip replacement. Sixty patients, all at least 60 years old and six weeks post-surgery, took part. The goal was to see if the extra exercises could improve pain, balance, movement, and daily function better than usual care alone.
