Advanced nerve and muscle testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that affect your work, your sleep, your daily routine. The numbness in your hands makes typing difficult. The tingling in your feet keeps you awake. The muscle weakness makes you question every movement.
Our nerve and muscle testing gives you definitive answers. EMG and nerve conduction studies measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning, identifying the specific location and severity of any problems.
When you know what’s actually wrong, you can stop wondering and start treating the real issue. No more guessing. No more trying treatments that don’t work because they’re targeting the wrong problem.
We’ve been providing accurate nerve and muscle diagnostic testing to University Park residents for years. Our physicians specialize in spine and nerve conditions, bringing the expertise needed to interpret complex test results correctly.
We use advanced diagnostic equipment and proven testing protocols. Every test is performed by experienced technicians and interpreted by board-certified specialists who understand exactly what they’re looking for.
You’re not just getting a test. You’re getting an accurate diagnosis from doctors who’ve seen thousands of cases and know how to identify even subtle nerve and muscle problems.
Your nerve and muscle testing typically involves two main components: electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCV). The nerve conduction study comes first, where small electrical impulses are sent through your nerves to measure how quickly and completely they transmit signals.
The EMG portion involves inserting thin needles into specific muscles to record their electrical activity. This shows us exactly how your muscles respond to nerve signals and whether there’s any damage or dysfunction.
Most testing takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we’re evaluating. 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.

Our nerve and muscle testing evaluates both sensory and motor nerve function, giving you a complete picture of what’s happening in your nervous system. We test nerve conduction velocity, muscle response patterns, and the integrity of nerve-muscle connections.
The testing covers common problem areas like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, radiculopathy, and peripheral neuropathy. We also evaluate muscle disorders that can mimic nerve problems or occur alongside them.
University Park patients appreciate our thorough approach because it catches problems that limited testing might miss. When you’re dealing with complex symptoms, you need comprehensive evaluation to get the right diagnosis the first time.
