Advanced diagnostic testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your pain, numbness, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that disrupt your sleep, your work, your daily routine. Maybe it’s numbness in your hands that makes typing difficult. Or weakness in your legs that has you worried about something serious.
Nerve and muscle testing gives you concrete answers. Instead of guessing or trying treatments that might not work, you’ll know exactly which nerves or muscles aren’t functioning properly. This means your treatment can target the real problem, not just mask symptoms.
When you understand what’s happening in your body, you can make informed decisions about your care. No more wondering if that tingling will get worse or if you’re dealing with something serious. Just clear information that leads to effective treatment.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Staten Island residents for years, specializing in accurate diagnosis of nerve and muscle disorders. We understand that getting to the root of your symptoms is the first step toward feeling better.
Located right here in Meiers Corners, we use advanced diagnostic equipment operated by trained technicians. You don’t need to travel to Manhattan for quality care when you have board-certified specialists in your neighborhood.
Our focus is on clear communication and thorough evaluation. You’ll understand your test results and what they mean for your treatment options.
The process starts with a consultation about your symptoms, medical history, and what activities trigger your discomfort. This helps us determine which specific tests will give the most useful information about your condition.
During electromyography (EMG) testing, small electrodes measure electrical activity in your muscles. For nerve conduction studies, mild electrical pulses test how quickly and effectively your nerves send signals. Both tests are performed in our office and typically take 30 to 60 minutes.
You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what the findings mean. If the tests reveal a specific condition, we’ll discuss treatment options immediately. If further evaluation is needed, you’ll know the next steps before you leave.

Your evaluation includes both EMG testing to assess muscle function and nerve conduction studies to measure how well your nerves transmit signals. This combination provides a complete picture of what’s causing your symptoms.
The testing can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, and other nerve-related problems. Many Staten Island residents deal with repetitive strain injuries from work or age-related nerve changes that benefit from accurate diagnosis.
All testing is performed using state-of-the-art equipment in a comfortable office setting. We accept insurance and handle billing directly. You’ll receive detailed results that can be shared with other healthcare providers if needed for coordinated care.
