You Are Working with an 85 Year-Old Male with Cerebellar

You are working with an 85 year-old male with cerebellar deficits as a result of longstanding alcohol use.You elect to use proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) to improve coordination.Which of the following is NOT a benefit to using PNF to improve coordination?

A) Enhances learning of coordinated movement through the use of verbal cuing in combination with visual input
B) Improves the coordination between antagonists,and address ataxia/incoordination,by implementing reciprocal or reversing movements combined with appropriate resistance
C) Enhances the normal sequence of movement by emphasizing the distal to proximal sequencing of normal movement patterns
D) Confuses the direction of movement with specific manual contacts
