Advanced EMG testing and nerve conduction studies that pinpoint exactly what’s causing your symptoms.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for months. Your primary care doctor suspects nerve damage, but you need definitive answers. EMG testing gives you exactly that – precise measurements of how your nerves and muscles are actually functioning.
Within an hour, you’ll know if you’re dealing with carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, neuropathy, or muscle disorders. No more guessing. No more generic treatments that don’t work. Just clear data about what’s happening in your body and a targeted plan to address it.
The relief isn’t just physical – it’s mental. When you finally understand your condition, you can stop worrying about worst-case scenarios and focus on getting better.

EMG testing involves two parts: nerve conduction studies and electromyography. First, small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how well your nerves transmit electrical signals. You’ll feel brief, mild electrical pulses – uncomfortable but not painful.
Next, a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. The needle is much thinner than those used for blood draws, and most patients tolerate it well. You’ll be asked to relax and then gently contract certain muscles while the electrical activity is recorded.
The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on which nerves and muscles need testing. Results are available immediately, and your doctor will explain the findings and discuss treatment options before you leave.
