Health Concerns Pre-Employment Physicals May Improve

Service symptoms image Many people in Redding, CA come to us for pre-employment physicals as part of their hiring process, even if they don’t have existing symptoms. However, we often help candidates who want to ensure old injuries won’t hold them back, who are recovering from surgeries or illnesses, or who have questions about how their current health might impact their job performance. We see people with back pain, repetitive strain issues, or underlying conditions who want proper, honest feedback before stepping into a new, physically demanding role.

Our exams can also provide early detection for concerns like high blood pressure, reduced flexibility, or limited strength that may affect day-to-day tasks. For many, this visit is an opportunity to learn more about how to approach work safely and avoid common injuries on the job.

What Happens During a Pre-Employment Physical

Your pre-employment physical at our Redding, CA office begins with a conversation—about your job, your health history, and your concerns. We’ll perform a thorough medical and surgical history review, followed by a physical health assessment that examines key areas needed for your specific position. For physically intensive jobs, we may check muscle strength, range of motion, flexibility, balance, and endurance; for desk-based roles, we focus on posture, vision, hearing, and overall mobility. After the exam, we provide the documentation you need for your employer and discuss any findings with you. You’re encouraged to ask questions and let us know about any discomfort or worries. The experience should feel approachable and supportive, with respect for your privacy and a focus on your future health and productivity in Redding, CA.
