Focusing on cardio vascular fitness, strength, mobility, and flexibility the program is designed to develop physical conditioning, educate the patient on body mechanics, and advise the patient on ways to prevent reinjury.
FCE, Functional Capacity Evaluation, in a single office visit our therapists will complete standardized tests to assess the extent of dysfunction in musculoskeletal functions and, in relation to occupational requirements, establish vocational rehab needs and determine any work limitations. This process will set the benchmark for the work reconditioning program and ultimately drive the type and extent of the customized therapy program. Extended FCE are available for unique situations where a deeper understanding is required.

This analysis can include the demands on the individual employee, the conditions of the work station, environmental situations, and atmospheric exposure.
