Advanced electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, weakness, or tingling.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that don’t make sense. Numbness in your hands that makes simple tasks frustrating. Muscle weakness that seems to come and go. Tingling that keeps you awake at night.
EMG testing gives you the diagnostic clarity you need. Instead of guessing about nerve damage or muscle disorders, you get precise measurements that show exactly where the problem lies and how severe it is.
When you know what’s actually happening in your nerves and muscles, your doctor can create a treatment plan that targets the real issue. No more trial-and-error approaches or treatments that don’t address the root cause.
We’ve been providing comprehensive diagnostic testing to patients throughout the New York area. Our practice focuses specifically on spine and nerve-related conditions, which means we understand exactly what you’re experiencing.
Our specialists have performed thousands of EMG tests and nerve conduction studies. We know how to get accurate readings while keeping you comfortable throughout the process.
Located in Bayswater, NY, we serve patients who need reliable answers about their nerve and muscle symptoms without traveling across the city for quality care.
Your EMG testing appointment typically takes 30-60 minutes and involves two main components. First is the nerve conduction study, where small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how well electrical signals travel through your nerves.
The second part is the actual electromyography, where a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. This sounds more uncomfortable than it actually is – most patients describe it as similar to getting blood drawn.
Throughout the test, we’ll tell you exactly what’s happening and what the readings show. We can often share initial findings right away, though complete results and treatment recommendations are typically discussed within a few days once all data is analyzed.

Your EMG testing includes both electromyography and nerve conduction studies in one appointment. This comprehensive approach gives a complete picture of how your nerves and muscles are functioning together.
The testing can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders, and nerve damage from injuries. You’ll receive detailed results that show not just what’s wrong, but how severe the problem is and which specific nerves or muscles are affected.
All testing is performed using advanced equipment that provides precise measurements. The results integrate seamlessly with your existing care plan, whether you’re working with a primary care doctor, orthopedist, or other specialist.
