Somewhere between the clinic and the weight room, patients get handed off. Rehab ends, performance begins, and the outcome falls into the space between them. There is a wide gap that exists between the table….and the field.

Our founder wrote the book on bridging that gap. Literally.

Sue Falsone, PT, DPT, MS, SCS, ATC, CSCS, COMT, RYT, FNAP, is the author of Bridging the Gap from Rehab to Performance, and she joined the APTA Podcast to make the case she has been making for decades: the best patient outcomes happen when clinicians stop treating rehabilitation and performance as separate professions and start bridging the gap between them.

She discusses the development of the Pentamodal Method™️and her internationally known company and elite team of instructors that Train the Teams behind the Teams here at Structure & Function Education.
