Advanced EMG testing and nerve conduction studies to pinpoint what’s causing your muscle weakness, numbness, or pain.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with unexplained symptoms long enough. Muscle weakness that makes simple tasks difficult. Numbness that won’t go away. Tingling that keeps you up at night.
EMG testing gives you the precise answers you need. This diagnostic procedure measures the electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, revealing exactly where the problem lies. Whether it’s carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, or other neurological conditions, you’ll know what you’re dealing with.
No more guessing. No more wondering if it’s serious. Just clear, accurate results that point toward the right treatment. You can finally move forward with confidence, knowing exactly what needs to be addressed and how to get your life back on track.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Cresskill and Bergen County patients for years with comprehensive neurological diagnostic services. Our team includes board-certified neurologists who specialize in EMG testing and nerve conduction studies.
You’re not just getting a test – you’re getting expertise. Our physicians have performed thousands of EMG procedures and know how to get accurate results while keeping you comfortable. We work directly with your referring doctor to ensure seamless care.
Our facility uses advanced electromyography equipment that provides precise measurements and reliable results. Every test is performed by experienced professionals who understand that you want answers, not just another appointment.
The EMG testing process is straightforward and typically takes 30-60 minutes. First, you’ll meet with our neurologist who explains the procedure and reviews your symptoms. Small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure nerve conduction – this part feels like mild electrical pulses.
Next comes the electromyography portion, where a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. You might feel brief discomfort, similar to getting blood drawn, but most patients tolerate it well.
Throughout the test, you’ll see and hear your muscle and nerve activity on the monitoring equipment. Our neurologist explains what we’re finding in real time. After the procedure, you’ll receive your results immediately, along with a clear explanation of what they mean and recommendations for next steps. Your referring physician also receives a detailed report within 24 hours.

Your EMG testing includes both electromyography and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) studies for a complete picture of your neurological function. The testing can identify conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, radiculopathy, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders, and spinal nerve compression.
You’ll receive detailed results that show exactly which nerves or muscles are affected and to what degree. This precision helps your doctor develop the most effective treatment plan, whether that’s physical therapy, medication, injections, or other interventions.
The testing is performed in our comfortable, modern facility with the latest diagnostic equipment. Most insurance plans cover EMG testing when medically necessary, and our staff handles all insurance verification and billing. You can focus on getting answers while we handle the paperwork.
