The idea is to get them to recognize their left side. A few ways to do this is to approach them on the neglected side so they have to look in that direction. Another good method is to place objects on neglected side so they have to reach across. Anything to help them remember that side of their body exists is a good intervention. The proprioceptive neuromuscular faciliatory theory focuses on reaching diagnolly across the body to do activities, this is a good activity for left side neglect. The treatment techniques used in the PNF approach are diagnol patterns, total patterns, and facilitation techniques (Early, 2012). It is based on regainig normal
