Nerve Function Test Process

Simple Testing, Immediate Results

The entire process takes about 45 minutes to an hour. First, we place small electrodes on your skin over the nerves we’re testing. These send tiny electrical impulses that measure how fast and strong your nerve signals are.

For the muscle testing portion, we use a thin needle electrode to measure electrical activity in your muscles. Most patients describe it as similar to getting blood drawn – brief and manageable.

You’ll see your results immediately on our computer screen. We explain what each measurement means and how it relates to your symptoms. By the end of your appointment, you’ll have a complete understanding of your nerve and muscle function, plus a detailed report for your referring doctor.

Comprehensive Nerve Muscle Evaluation

Complete Diagnostic Testing in One Visit

Our nerve and muscle testing evaluates multiple areas in a single appointment. We test nerve conduction velocity, muscle response times, and electrical activity patterns. This comprehensive approach catches problems that partial testing might miss.

Many Bay Heights patients come to us after inconclusive MRIs or X-rays. Those tests show structure, but they don’t show function. Our EMG and nerve conduction studies reveal exactly how your nerves and muscles are actually working.

We test for carpal tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, and other conditions that cause numbness, tingling, or weakness. Each test is tailored to your specific symptoms and medical history.

Most patients are surprised by how manageable the testing is. The nerve conduction portion feels like small electrical pulses on your skin – similar to static electricity. The EMG uses a thin needle that most people compare to getting blood drawn. The discomfort is brief and well worth the clear answers you’ll get. We explain everything as we go, so you know exactly what to expect at each step.
The complete evaluation typically takes 45 minutes to an hour, depending on which nerves and muscles we’re testing. We don’t rush the process because accuracy is crucial for your diagnosis. You’ll get your results immediately after testing, and we’ll spend time explaining what everything means. Most patients appreciate that they get definitive answers in a single visit rather than waiting weeks for results.
Our testing can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, pinched nerves, sciatica, muscle disorders, and many other conditions causing numbness, tingling, or weakness. We can also determine the severity of nerve damage and whether it’s getting worse or improving. This information is crucial for creating an effective treatment plan. Many patients discover their symptoms have a specific, treatable cause they never knew about.
Most insurance plans cover EMG and nerve conduction studies when they’re medically necessary, which they typically are if you’re experiencing numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness. We verify your coverage before your appointment and explain any out-of-pocket costs upfront. Our billing team works directly with insurance companies to maximize your benefits. We believe cost shouldn’t prevent you from getting the answers you need about your health.
Preparation is minimal, but there are a few important things to know. Don’t use lotions or creams on your skin the day of testing, as they can interfere with the electrodes. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes that allow easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood thinners, let us know beforehand, though you usually don’t need to stop them. Bring a list of your current medications and any previous test results related to your symptoms.
You’ll receive a detailed report that we’ll send to your referring doctor within 24 hours. We’ll also give you a copy and explain exactly what the results mean for your condition. Based on your results, we can discuss treatment options or refer you to the appropriate specialist. Many patients find that finally having a clear diagnosis opens up treatment possibilities they didn’t know existed. The key is that you’ll have objective, measurable data about your nerve and muscle function to guide your next steps.
