- PHASE 2: focus on progressively strengthening this connection and incorporating some rehabilitative core movements
- PHASE 3: continue with core strengthening and beginning full body strength
- PHASE 4: progressively challenging the core and rest of the body to rebuild strength while implementing strategies to help manage possible symptoms
