The correct answer is true.

Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation is a flexibility training technique facilitated by practitioners of rehabilitation medicine that involves the stretching and contraction of the concerned or affected muscle group. A partner is usually needed as an individual contracts the target muscle and the partner applies resistance to inhibit the individual's movement.
