Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) in Islamabad & Rawalpindi
Not sure if you’re ready to return to work after an injury? PT of City offers professional functional capacity evaluation in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and DHA Islamabad. We measure your physical abilities with objective, hands-on testing so you, your employer, or your doctor can make confident decisions.
What is a Functional Capacity Evaluation?
A functional capacity evaluation (FCE) is a structured assessment that measures what your body can safely do in real-world tasks such as lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling, bending, standing, and walking. Instead of relying on symptoms alone, an FCE gives a clear, measurable picture of your physical work capacity.
At PT of City, our physiotherapists carry out each evaluation step by step. The result is a detailed report that shows your strengths, your limitations, and what level of activity is safe for you.
Who Needs a Functional Capacity Evaluation?
A wide range of musculoskeletal conditions respond well to dry needling therapy, including:
- Injured Workers โ to find out whether you're ready to return to your job, and at what level
- Post-Surgery or Post-Injury Patients โ to measure recovery progress and set realistic activity goals
- Employers โ to match employees with jobs they can perform safely
- Chronic Pain or Back Injury Patients โ to understand physical limits and prevent re-injury
