Functional Capacity Evaluations in Everett, WA
Founded in 1976, our company has pioneered scientific approaches to injury analysis and rehabilitation through functional capacity evaluations, biomechanical analysis, and work physiology protocols. Our team, led by Dr. Theodore J. Becker, combines decades of expertise in human performance testing and capacity evaluation to deliver objective, court-defensible data for medical and legal professionals. We developed the patented HDP Hard Data Protocol, a quantified methodology that bridges rehabilitation science with forensic analysis of injuries. Our services include Functional Capacity Evaluations, BEC Biomechanical video analysis, work hardening programs, and FCE Oversight Reviews using The Becker Method.Recognized by medical and legal communities nationwide, we provide expert testimony and evidence-based exhibits that clarify physical disabilities for judicial proceedings. With a foundation in Olympic athlete training and spine research, our protocols have resolved over 100 court cases through rigorous scientific analysis. We maintain Epi Rehab as our official entity while operating under the EPI Rehab brand for client accessibility.

Functional Capacity Evaluation
Our Functional Capacity Evaluations measure physical abilities using the patented HDP Hard Data Protocol. This process quantifies strength, endurance, and work physiology through biomechanical analysis and redundancy testing. Designed for legal and medical professionals, these evaluations provide court-admissible data on an individual's work capacity limitations.
Biomechanical Video Analysis
BEC Biomechanical analysis converts surveillance footage into scientific evidence. Our experts isolate critical movements using HDP protocols to demonstrate injury impacts on work capabilities. This objective analysis reduces review time while producing defensible exhibits for legal proceedings.
Work Hardening Programs
Developed by Dr. Becker, these programs bridge physical therapy and workplace readiness. Customized regimens improve strength and work-specific biomechanics using methods tested with Olympic athletes. The program ensures injured workers regain full functional capacity for job requirements.
Pre-Employment Testing
Our testing evaluates candidates' physical suitability for specific job tasks using isokinetic measurements. This service matches human performance tolerance to employment criteria through standardized protocols, including post-operative capability assessments for specialized positions.
FCE Oversight Review
The Becker Method provides expert critique of existing FCE reports to verify scientific validity. We assess whether conclusions align with collected data and industry standards, offering critical analysis for cases involving commercial or custom-designed evaluation protocols.
