Advanced nerve and muscle diagnostic testing that actually pinpoints what’s causing your pain, numbness, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with unexplained numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for too long. Basic tests haven’t given you answers, and you’re tired of guessing games with your health.
Our comprehensive nerve and muscle testing gets to the root of your symptoms. Through advanced electromyography and nerve conduction studies, we measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning – or not functioning.
When you leave our Summit office, you’ll have clear answers about your condition and a specific plan to address it. No more wondering if that tingling in your hands is serious or if your muscle weakness will get worse.
NY Spine Medicine brings specialized neurological testing directly to Summit residents. Our board-certified physicians have spent years diagnosing complex nerve and muscle disorders that other providers often miss.
We’ve been serving northern New Jersey communities with advanced diagnostic capabilities that typically require trips into Manhattan. Our Summit location means you get the same level of expertise without the hassle of city travel.
When your symptoms need answers, experience matters. We’ve diagnosed thousands of cases involving nerve compression, muscle disorders, and neurological conditions that impact daily life.
Your nerve and muscle evaluation starts with a detailed discussion about your symptoms, when they started, and what makes them better or worse. We need to understand your specific situation before any testing begins.
The actual testing involves two main components. Electromyography measures electrical activity in your muscles using thin needle electrodes. Nerve conduction studies use surface electrodes to measure how quickly signals travel through your nerves.
Most patients find the testing mildly uncomfortable but not painful. The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we’re evaluating. You’ll get your results immediately, along with a clear explanation of what they mean for your condition and treatment options.
