Precise nerve and muscle testing that reveals what’s really causing your numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with mysterious symptoms long enough. That numbness in your hands during sleep, the tingling that shoots down your leg, or the weakness that makes simple tasks frustrating – these aren’t things you should just live with.
Our nerve and muscle testing gives you concrete answers. We use electromyography and nerve conduction studies to pinpoint exactly where your nerves or muscles aren’t functioning properly. No more guessing about whether it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, or something more serious.
When you leave our office, you’ll understand what’s happening in your body and have a clear path forward. Most patients tell us the relief of finally knowing is worth it, even before treatment begins.
We’ve been helping Florida patients get accurate diagnoses for years. Our board-certified specialists focus specifically on spine and pain conditions, which means we see these symptoms every day.
We’re not a general practice trying to figure things out. Nerve and muscle testing is what we do. Our physicians have performed thousands of these studies and know how to interpret even subtle findings that other providers might miss.
You deserve specialists who understand exactly what you’re going through and have the experience to give you reliable answers.
First, we’ll review your symptoms and medical history. This helps us understand which nerves and muscles to focus on during testing. Most patients are surprised how much this conversation reveals about their condition.
During the nerve conduction study, we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast your nerves transmit signals. For the EMG portion, we use a thin needle electrode to check muscle activity. Yes, there’s some discomfort, but most people tolerate it fine.
The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which areas we’re testing. We explain what we’re finding as we go, so you’re not left wondering. By the end, you’ll have a clear picture of your nerve and muscle function, plus our recommendations for next steps.

Your nerve and muscle evaluation covers both electrical testing methods that give us the complete picture. The nerve conduction study measures how well electrical signals travel through your nerves – crucial for diagnosing conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, or diabetic nerve damage.
The electromyography portion evaluates your muscle response and can detect problems with the muscles themselves or the nerves that control them. This combination lets us distinguish between different types of nerve problems and muscle disorders.
We test the specific areas related to your symptoms, whether that’s your arms and hands for numbness and tingling, or your legs for sciatica-type pain. You’ll receive a detailed report explaining our findings in terms you can understand, plus copies for your referring physician.
