Advanced diagnostic testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your nerve pain, muscle weakness, or unexplained numbness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that don’t make sense. Numbness in your hands that makes typing difficult. Weakness in your legs that wasn’t there six months ago. Pain that shoots down your arm for no clear reason.
Our nerve and muscle testing gives you the diagnostic clarity you need. Through electromyography and nerve conduction studies, we measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning. You’ll know if it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, diabetic neuropathy, or something else entirely.
No more guessing. No more treatments that don’t work because nobody knows what’s actually wrong. You get precise results that lead to targeted treatment plans that actually address your specific condition.
NY Spine Medicine has been providing comprehensive nerve and muscle diagnostic testing throughout the Shore Acres area and greater New York region. Our board-certified specialists understand that accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment.
We’ve performed thousands of EMG and nerve conduction studies, helping patients finally understand what’s causing their symptoms. Our approach combines advanced diagnostic technology with clear communication – you’ll understand your results and what they mean for your treatment options.
We work closely with your referring physician and other specialists to ensure you get coordinated care based on precise diagnostic findings.
Your nerve and muscle testing appointment typically takes 45-60 minutes. We start with a detailed discussion of your symptoms, when they started, and what makes them better or worse.
The nerve conduction study comes first. We place small electrodes on your skin and deliver mild electrical pulses to measure how quickly and effectively your nerves transmit signals. Most patients describe this as feeling like small static shocks.
Next is the electromyography (EMG) portion. We insert a thin needle electrode into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. This shows us whether muscle weakness is coming from the muscle itself or from nerve problems affecting that muscle.
You’ll get your results the same day. We explain what we found, what it means for your condition, and discuss treatment options based on your specific diagnosis.

Our nerve and muscle testing evaluates a wide range of conditions affecting Shore Acres residents. We diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, and other peripheral nerve disorders. The testing also identifies muscle diseases, nerve root compression, and helps differentiate between different types of neuromuscular problems.
You receive a comprehensive report that includes detailed findings, diagnostic conclusions, and treatment recommendations. We coordinate with your referring physician and can connect you with appropriate specialists based on your results.
Most insurance plans cover these diagnostic procedures when medically necessary. We handle the insurance authorization process and provide transparent pricing information upfront so you know what to expect.
