Symptom Recovery has a predictable pattern of progression.  As a Certified Neuro-Developmental Treatment (www.NDTA.org) Physical Therapist, with an Exercise Physiology and Cardiac Rehabilitation Masters Degree, Dr. Susan Leger takes a unique approach to work physiology, muscle re-education, motor control and coordination.  Her program focuses the exercise parameters appropriate for that particular Phase and Stage to each successive Phase and Stage as recovery continues.  The emphasis is to build on the individual’s particular strengths and develop the exact customized program to move that individual to the next Stage, then to the next Phase of Symptom Recovery. Precise 1 minute, 5 minute, and 20 minute Phase protocols were first developed by Dr. Susan Leger in the late 1990’s, and have continued to evolve on a daily basis. This progression has greatly enhanced with the contributions of Linda Holmes, BScPT, MS, IMTC, Certified Feldenkrais® Practitioner (www.FeldenkraisGuild.com) joining the First Step Physical Therapy team in 2010.
