Advanced diagnostic testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your nerve pain, numbness, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with unexplained pain, tingling, or weakness for too long. Maybe your regular doctor ran some basic tests but couldn’t give you clear answers. Maybe you’re worried it’s something serious, or frustrated that no one seems to understand what you’re going through.
Nerve and muscle diagnostic testing changes that. EMG and nerve conduction studies don’t guess – they measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning. You’ll walk out knowing whether that numbness in your hands is carpal tunnel, if your back pain is actually a pinched nerve, or if your leg weakness has a treatable cause.
No more wondering. No more generic treatments that don’t work because they’re not targeting the real problem. Just clear, accurate results that lead to treatment plans that actually make sense for your specific condition.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Fanwood and central New Jersey for years, focusing specifically on spine and pain conditions that other doctors often struggle to diagnose properly. Our team includes board-certified specialists who perform these tests every day – not just occasionally when someone gets referred.
You’re not getting shuffled through a massive hospital system where you’re just another number. You’re working with doctors who chose to specialize in exactly what you’re dealing with. We use the latest diagnostic equipment and actually take time to explain your results in terms you can understand.
The process is straightforward and typically takes 30-60 minutes. First, you’ll discuss your symptoms and medical history so we understand exactly what you’re experiencing and where.
For the EMG portion, thin electrodes are inserted into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. It sounds worse than it is – most patients describe it as similar to getting blood drawn. The nerve conduction study uses surface electrodes on your skin to measure how fast and strong your nerve signals are traveling.
You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what they mean and what your next steps should be. No waiting weeks for a callback or trying to decipher confusing medical reports on your own.

Our testing covers both sensory and motor nerve function, muscle response patterns, and nerve conduction velocities. This comprehensive approach means you’re not just getting a partial picture – you’re getting the complete story of what’s happening with your neuromuscular system.
Most patients in Fanwood come to us because they’re tired of driving into New York City for specialized testing, or because their local doctors don’t have the equipment or expertise to perform these studies properly. You get the same level of advanced diagnostics you’d find at major medical centers, but with the personal attention and convenience of a local practice.
Our testing can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopathy, muscle disorders, and various other nerve compression or damage issues that cause pain, weakness, or numbness.
