it checks inodes as well as other file-system structure details. I do not believe it does a physical scan (i.e. bad blocks), although that may depend on your particular OS version. At least under linux there is a separate tool for this (which can be called by fsck if you pass a certain flag)

fsck.xfs
fsck.xfs(8) System Manager's Manual fsck.xfs(8)
NAME
fsck.xfs - do nothing, successfully
SYNOPSIS
fsck.xfs [ filesys ... ]
DESCRIPTION
fsck.xfs is called by the generic Linux fsck(8) program at startup to check and repair an XFS filesystem. XFS is a journaling filesystem
and performs recovery at mount(8) time if necessary, so fsck.xfs simply exits with a zero exit status.
If you wish to check the consistency of an XFS filesystem, or repair a damaged or corrupt XFS filesystem, see xfs_check(8) and
xfs_repair(8).
FILES
/etc/fstab.
SEE ALSO
fsck(8), fstab(5), xfs(5), xfs_check(8), xfs_repair(8).
