Testing and Health Risk Assessments In Evansville
Identify Risks Early and Build a Stronger, Healthier Future
At Core Physical Therapy in Evansville, we believe prevention is just as important as treatment. Our Testing and Health Risk Assessments are designed to help you understand your body’s strengths, limitations, and potential areas of concern — before they become problems. Using advanced technology and movement-based evaluations, we create a clear picture of your overall health so you can move, work, and live with confidence.
What Are Health Risk Assessments?
Health Risk Assessments (HRAs) are comprehensive screenings that evaluate your mobility, posture, balance, strength, endurance, and cardiovascular health. Our licensed physical therapists use state-of-the-art tools, including video diagnostic ultrasound imaging and movement analysis, to identify early warning signs of injury, muscle imbalance, or joint stress.
These tests are ideal for anyone looking to take control of their wellness — from active adults and athletes to employees, seniors, and anyone recovering from prior injuries. By pinpointing weak points or patterns of strain, we can help you reduce risk, prevent pain, and improve long-term performance.
What We Test
- Muscle Strength and Endurance: Evaluate how your muscles perform under daily or occupational stress.
- Posture and Balance: Identify misalignments that can lead to pain or falls.
- Range of Motion: Detect stiffness or limitations that restrict movement.
- Cardiovascular Health: Assess your endurance and overall conditioning.
- Movement Efficiency: Analyze how you walk, lift, or bend to find areas that need improvement.
Our therapists take time to explain your results clearly and create a customized action plan — whether that means targeted exercises, workplace modifications, or a referral to a specialist if needed.
Who Benefits from a Health Risk Assessment
- Active adults looking to prevent injuries and improve mobility
- Seniors wanting to stay independent and reduce fall risk
- Employees or employers seeking wellness screenings or ergonomic evaluations
- Individuals recovering from surgery or chronic pain
Regular assessments help detect small issues before they become major setbacks, saving time, discomfort, and medical costs down the road.

You’re not just getting tested — you’re getting empowered.
I had a serious back injury and got really lucky with not having any surgery. I had great people working on me over the years. Dry needling, massage, stimulation with heat, and exercise helped me regain my life. I’m grateful for Core and everything they have done for me. If anytime you are in need of a session they will get you in as soon as they can. They are flexible and accommodating. Hailey and Nancy have great hands and their massages are top notch. I always felt like a new person by the time I was leaving. After a session I got some good sleep! Highly recommend.

Awesome place. I would tell people to go there for therapy. Everyone there makes you feel like your important. They all know who you are and greet you when you walk in. They have coffee and water if you like. And are willing to get that for you. They make you feel comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. Hailey,and Francesca are two of the therapists. Their awesome..!
