Lakeside Medical Clinic can now Test for Muscle Damage

C.R. England, Inc. formed a strategic alliance with Insight Diagnostics, Inc. This new relationship is great for truck drivers coming into C.R. England’s Truck Driving School in that it raises patient care to a new level at their clinic, Lakeside Clinic. Insight Diagnostics, Inc. has an FDA approved device called the Electrodiagnostic Functional Assessment that evaluates soft tissue injuries. No more going off campus to test for muscle injury. Now, it can be done in the clinic.

If a driver comes into their clinic with a sprained ankle, the doctor uses the Electrodiagnostic Functional Assessment (EFA) to assess more accurately the damage to the tissue. Amazingly enough, the EFA can even help figure out the age of the injury, if it’s new or has become chronic.

According to Insight Diagnostics, Inc., President, Mary Reaston, PhD., here’s how it works:
“The EFA measures muscle activity and function at rest and during full range of motion to objectively determine the nature, acuity, and extent of an injury as well as the precise location and source of referred pain. This is important because it provides the blueprint to develop site specific treatment to return the injured worker to full duty and pre-injury status.”

Not just the drivers are lucky enough to have access to this machine, but also the corporate employees. With early diagnosis and treatment, injuries heal faster and employees can return to work sooner.

Insight Diagnostics, Inc.’s specialists are the reason for this breakthrough and C.R. England, Inc. is happy to bring this machine on board. The CR England medical clinic, Lakeside Medical, at the C.R. England’s Truck Driving School has an office right their on their premise for health care to drivers as well as employees of the corporate office.
