Advanced diagnostic testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your nerve or muscle problems.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for too long without real answers. Maybe your primary doctor ran basic tests that came back normal, but you know something isn’t right.
Our nerve and muscle testing gives you the clarity you need. We use electromyography and nerve conduction studies to measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning. No more guessing about whether it’s a pinched nerve, muscle disorder, or something else entirely.
When you know what’s actually wrong, you can finally move forward with treatment that targets the real problem. Most patients leave with a clear diagnosis and a plan that makes sense for their specific condition.
NY Spine Medicine has been helping Little River Gardens residents get to the bottom of their nerve and muscle problems for years. We’re not a general practice trying to figure things out as we go.
Our physicians specialize in diagnosing complex neurological conditions. We see patients every day who’ve been told their symptoms are “normal aging” or “just stress” when there’s actually a treatable condition causing their problems.
We invested in advanced diagnostic equipment because we know that accurate testing leads to better outcomes. When you’re dealing with nerve or muscle issues, precision matters.
First, we’ll review your symptoms and medical history to understand what you’ve been experiencing. This helps us focus the testing on the areas most likely causing your problems.
For the nerve conduction study, we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast and strong your nerve signals are. It feels like a small shock, but it’s over quickly. The EMG portion involves inserting a thin needle electrode into specific muscles to record their electrical activity.
The entire process typically takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on how many areas we need to test. 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.

Your nerve and muscle evaluation includes both EMG and nerve conduction studies performed during the same appointment. We test multiple nerve pathways and muscle groups to get a complete picture of what’s happening.
You’ll receive a detailed report explaining your results in terms you can understand, not just medical jargon. We also provide specific recommendations for treatment based on what we find, whether that’s physical therapy, medication, injections, or referral to a specialist.
Many Little River Gardens patients come to us after months of uncertainty about their symptoms. Our comprehensive approach means you leave with answers and a clear path forward, not more questions.
