Precise electrodiagnostic testing that reveals what’s really causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that don’t make sense. Numbness in your hands that makes it hard to grip things. Tingling in your feet that keeps you awake. Muscle weakness that’s getting worse despite physical therapy.
EMG testing gives you the clarity you need. Within an hour, you’ll know if your symptoms are caused by nerve compression, muscle disorders, or something else entirely. No more guessing. No more failed treatments that don’t address the real problem.
The test measures electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, pinpointing exactly where the issue is. You’ll leave with concrete answers and a clear path forward for treatment.
NY Spine Medicine has been providing electrodiagnostic testing to Carol City and South Florida for years. Our team consists of board-certified physicians who specialize in diagnosing nerve and muscle disorders.
You’re not just getting a test – you’re getting expertise. Our doctors have performed thousands of EMG studies and know how to interpret even the most complex results. We’ll explain your findings in plain language and work with your referring physician to develop the right treatment plan.
We use advanced electrodiagnostic equipment to ensure accurate results every time.
The EMG test has two parts: nerve conduction studies and electromyography. First, small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how well your nerves conduct electrical signals. You’ll feel brief, mild electrical pulses – similar to static electricity.
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 find it tolerable. You’ll be asked to relax certain muscles, then contract them gently.
The entire process takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles need testing. Results are available immediately, and we’ll discuss findings with you before you leave.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction velocity studies and electromyography to give a complete picture of your condition. We test multiple nerve pathways and muscle groups to identify patterns that reveal specific diagnoses.
Common conditions we diagnose include carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, herniated disc with nerve compression, diabetic neuropathy, and various muscle disorders. The testing can also rule out serious conditions like ALS or muscular dystrophy when symptoms are concerning.
You’ll receive a detailed report explaining the findings, normal vs. abnormal values, and clinical significance. This report goes to your referring physician along with treatment recommendations based on the specific diagnosis.
