    Re: cva pt walking with stiff knee in swing fase

    Sounds like a pretty classic positive support reaction - check the foot, mob anything that's vaguely stiff, de-sensitise and handle the sole. Get the client to walk around the house with bare feet. Quite difficult to elicit change unless client can have a blast of therapy as positive support reactions tend to be adopted by the CNS quite easily. Good luck
