Nerve Function Test Process

Simple Testing, Clear Results

The process is straightforward. First, we review your symptoms and medical history. Then we perform the appropriate tests based on what we need to evaluate.

For nerve conduction studies, we place small electrodes on your skin and measure how well electrical signals travel through your nerves. It feels like small static shocks – uncomfortable for a moment, but not painful. For electromyography, we use a thin needle electrode to check muscle activity. Most people are surprised how tolerable it is.

The entire testing session usually takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we need to evaluate. You get results immediately, and we explain exactly what they mean. No waiting weeks to find out what’s wrong with you.

Comprehensive Muscle and Nerve Evaluation

Complete Diagnostic Testing Available

We test for the full range of nerve and muscle problems. Carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves in your back, peripheral neuropathy, muscle diseases, and other neuromuscular disorders. If it involves nerves or muscles, we can diagnose it.

Our testing identifies not just what’s wrong, but how severe it is. That matters because treatment depends on severity. A mild nerve compression might need different treatment than a severe one. We give you the specific information your doctor needs to treat you effectively.

Many of our patients come to us after months of unsuccessful treatment elsewhere. The problem wasn’t that their previous treatment was wrong – it’s that they never had an accurate diagnosis to begin with. You can’t fix what you don’t understand.

The testing involves some discomfort but isn’t painful for most people. Nerve conduction studies feel like small static electricity shocks that last a split second. The EMG uses a thin needle that feels similar to getting blood drawn. Many patients say it’s much more tolerable than they expected. The discomfort is brief and worth it for the answers you get. We explain everything as we go so you know what to expect.
Most testing sessions take 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we need to evaluate. Simple cases like checking for carpal tunnel might take 20-30 minutes. More complex evaluations that involve multiple areas can take up to an hour. We give you results immediately after testing, so you’re not waiting days or weeks to find out what’s wrong. The time investment is minimal compared to months of wondering what’s causing your symptoms.
Most insurance plans cover EMG and nerve conduction studies when they’re medically necessary to diagnose your symptoms. We work with most major insurance providers and handle the authorization process for you. Before your appointment, we verify your coverage and let you know about any potential out-of-pocket costs. These diagnostic tests are considered standard medical procedures, not experimental treatments, so coverage is typically good.
We can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, peripheral neuropathy, muscle diseases, nerve damage from diabetes, herniated disc effects on nerves, and many other neuromuscular conditions. The testing shows us exactly where nerve signals are blocked or slowed down, and whether muscles are responding normally. This helps distinguish between different types of problems that can cause similar symptoms like numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Many patients come with referrals from their primary care doctor or specialist, but it’s not always required depending on your insurance plan. If you’re having unexplained numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, or nerve pain, testing might be appropriate. We can check your insurance requirements when you call to schedule. Some plans require referrals for coverage, while others allow you to schedule directly with specialists.
You get results immediately after testing. We review the findings with you right away and explain what they mean in plain language. You’ll understand your diagnosis before you leave our office. We also send a detailed report to your referring physician or primary care doctor so they can coordinate your treatment. No waiting weeks to find out what’s wrong – you get answers the same day as your testing.
