Professional EMG testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your symptoms, so you can move forward with the right treatment.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for too long. The uncertainty is almost worse than the symptoms themselves.
EMG testing gives you concrete answers. When we measure how your nerves and muscles communicate, we can identify exactly where the problem is and how severe it is. No more guessing about whether it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, or something else entirely.
Most patients leave our office with a clear understanding of their condition and a roadmap for treatment. That’s the difference between wondering what’s wrong and knowing exactly how to fix it.
We’ve been serving the Castleton Corners community with specialized diagnostic testing for years. Our board-certified physicians focus specifically on spine and nerve conditions, which means we see these symptoms every day.
We understand that most people are nervous about EMG testing. That’s why we take time to explain exactly what we’re doing and what we’re finding as we go through the process.
Our goal is simple: give you accurate results and clear explanations so you can make informed decisions about your treatment.
The EMG test has two parts, and we’ll walk you through both. First is the nerve conduction study, where we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast your nerves transmit signals. This feels like a quick tap or static shock.
Next is the needle EMG, where we insert a thin needle electrode into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. The needle is about as thin as an acupuncture needle, and most people find it much less uncomfortable than they expected.
The entire process usually takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we need to test. You’ll get your results immediately, and we’ll explain what they mean for your specific situation.

Our EMG testing can diagnose a wide range of conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, muscle disorders, and nerve compression issues. We use the latest diagnostic equipment to ensure accurate results.
You’ll receive a detailed report that we’ll review with you before you leave. We explain what the numbers mean, how your results compare to normal ranges, and what treatment options make sense for your specific condition.
We also coordinate directly with your referring physician to make sure everyone involved in your care has the information they need. No waiting weeks for results or wondering what comes next.
