Advanced electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your symptoms and gets you on the right treatment path.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness long enough. You need answers, not more guessing games.
EMG testing gives you the diagnostic clarity you’ve been searching for. When nerve conduction studies reveal exactly which nerves aren’t functioning properly, your treatment becomes targeted instead of trial-and-error.
No more wondering if that shooting pain down your arm is serious. No more sleepless nights worrying about progressive weakness. You get concrete results that show your doctor exactly where the problem lies and how to address it effectively.
NY Spine Medicine has been providing comprehensive neurological diagnostics to Government Center patients for years. Our physicians understand that EMG testing isn’t just about running equipment—it’s about interpreting subtle findings that less experienced providers might miss.
When you’re dealing with nerve problems, you want someone who’s seen thousands of cases. Someone who knows the difference between normal variation and pathological findings. That’s exactly what you get with us.
We focus specifically on spine and neurological conditions, which means your EMG results get interpreted by doctors who understand how nerve problems actually affect your daily life.
Your EMG testing appointment typically takes 45-60 minutes and involves two main components: nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography.
First, nerve conduction studies measure how well electrical signals travel through your nerves. Small electrodes are placed on your skin, and mild electrical pulses test nerve function. This part feels like brief, mild static shocks.
Next, needle electromyography uses thin needles inserted into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. The needles are much thinner than blood draw needles, and most patients find this more tolerable than expected.
Throughout the entire process, we explain what we’re testing and why. You’ll know immediately if we’re finding normal or abnormal results, and we’ll discuss preliminary findings as the test progresses.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography to evaluate the entire neuromuscular system. This comprehensive approach identifies problems that single-component testing might miss.
The testing evaluates nerve signal transmission speed, muscle response patterns, and identifies specific locations where nerve damage or compression occurs. Whether you’re dealing with carpal tunnel syndrome, radiculopathy, peripheral neuropathy, or muscle disorders, this testing provides the diagnostic precision your treatment plan needs.
You receive detailed results explanation immediately after testing, plus a comprehensive written report for your referring physician. The findings directly guide treatment decisions, from conservative management to surgical interventions when necessary.
