摘要：Purpose. The main purpose of the study is to design a rehabilitation program that includes some techniques of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation, which can identify the difference between the pre-post measurement in the range of motion of the wrist joint, the elbow joint and the shoulder joint. Methods. The sample of the research was selected in a deliberate manner from children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders. The basic research sample (7) children and (2) children were in the exploratory study after excluding children with different disabilities and multiple disabilities. The researcher used the program (Angelus Software Version 3.1.5) to measure the range of motor joints was. Rehabilitation program implemented for a month and use three training units per week, which included the program 18 rehabilitation units. Results. Considering research procedures, sample boundaries and statistical analysis, it was found that the proposed rehabilitation program had a positive effect on the range of motion of the wrist joint, elbow joint and shoulder joint. Conclusions. Within the limits of the research sample and the results reached, it is recommended to direct the results of this research and the program to the workers in the field of motor rehabilitation for people with special needs in general and rehabilitation of the groups of neurodevelopmental disorders in particular and conduct other research using the method of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation technique on disorders and other disabilities.
