Advanced EMG and nerve conduction studies pinpoint exactly what’s causing your pain, numbness, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with nerve pain, muscle weakness, or that frustrating tingling sensation for too long. Maybe previous doctors couldn’t give you clear answers, or you’re tired of treatments that don’t seem to target the real problem.
Nerve and muscle testing changes that. Our EMG and nerve conduction studies show exactly where nerve damage is occurring and how severely it’s affecting your muscle function. No more guessing about whether it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, or something else entirely.
When you know the precise location and extent of nerve damage, your treatment becomes focused and effective. Instead of generic approaches that might help, you get targeted care that addresses your specific condition.
We’ve been serving East Village patients with comprehensive neurological testing for years. Our board-certified specialists focus exclusively on spine, nerve, and muscle disorders, which means you’re getting expertise that goes beyond general medicine.
We’ve performed thousands of EMG and nerve conduction studies, and we understand how frustrating it can be when you can’t get clear answers about your symptoms. That’s why we use advanced diagnostic equipment and take the time to explain your results in plain language.
Our East Village location makes it convenient for you to get the testing you need without traveling across the city.
Your nerve and muscle testing appointment starts with a discussion about your symptoms, when they started, and what makes them better or worse. This helps us focus the testing on the areas most likely causing your problems.
The EMG portion involves placing small electrodes on your skin or inserting thin needles into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. The nerve conduction study uses surface electrodes to send small electrical pulses along your nerves, measuring how quickly and completely signals travel.
Most testing takes 30-60 minutes depending on how many areas we need to evaluate. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what they mean and what your next steps should be. We’ll also provide a detailed report for your referring physician or any specialists you might need to see.

Your testing includes both electromyography (EMG) to assess muscle function and nerve conduction studies to evaluate how well your nerves transmit signals. We test multiple nerve pathways to get a complete picture of your neurological function.
The process identifies conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, radiculopathy, and peripheral neuropathy. We can also detect muscle disorders and determine whether weakness is coming from nerve damage or primary muscle problems.
You’ll receive a comprehensive report that includes specific measurements, comparison to normal values, and clear documentation of any abnormalities. This detailed information helps your doctor develop an effective treatment plan instead of taking a trial-and-error approach to your care.
