Advanced nerve and muscle diagnostic testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that don’t make sense. Numbness in your hands that makes typing difficult. Tingling in your legs that keeps you awake. Weakness that makes simple tasks feel impossible.
Our nerve and muscle testing gives you the clarity you’ve been missing. Through electromyography and nerve conduction studies, we measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning. No more guessing about whether it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, or something else entirely.
When you know the real cause, you can finally get treatment that actually works. Instead of trying random therapies or living with uncertainty, you’ll have a clear path forward based on objective test results.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving East Elmhurst and the greater Queens community with specialized diagnostic services for years. Our physicians understand that accurate testing is the foundation of effective treatment.
We focus exclusively on spine and neuromuscular conditions, which means we see these symptoms every day. We know the difference between nerve compression from a herniated disc and peripheral neuropathy from diabetes. We understand when tingling means carpal tunnel versus when it signals something more complex.
Our East Elmhurst location makes advanced nerve and muscle testing accessible to Queens residents who shouldn’t have to travel to Manhattan for quality care.
Your nerve and muscle evaluation starts with a discussion of your specific symptoms. We need to understand when the numbness started, what makes it worse, and how it’s affecting your daily life.
The EMG portion tests your muscle function using thin electrodes that detect electrical activity. It sounds intimidating, but most patients find it much easier than expected. The nerve conduction study measures how quickly signals travel through your nerves using small electrical pulses.
Both tests are completed in our office, usually within 45 minutes to an hour. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what we found and what it means for your treatment options. No waiting weeks to understand your own test results.

Our nerve and muscle diagnostic testing includes both electromyography and nerve conduction studies performed by experienced technicians under physician supervision. We test the specific areas where you’re experiencing symptoms, whether that’s your hands, arms, legs, or back.
You’ll receive a detailed report that explains your results in plain language, not medical jargon you can’t understand. We identify which nerves or muscles aren’t functioning normally and explain how this connects to your symptoms.
Many East Elmhurst patients come to us after months of unsuccessful treatments because they never had proper diagnostic testing. We’ve helped countless people avoid unnecessary procedures by providing the accurate diagnosis their previous providers were missing.
