Electromyography Testing Hadley Park

Know Exactly What's Wrong

You’ve been dealing with unexplained numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for too long. Your primary doctor ran basic tests, maybe tried some generic treatments, but you still don’t have real answers.

EMG testing changes that. This diagnostic procedure measures the electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, giving us precise information about what’s actually happening in your body. No more guessing. No more treating symptoms without understanding the cause.

When we complete your electromyography and nerve conduction study, you’ll walk out knowing whether you’re dealing with nerve compression, muscle disorders, or other neuromuscular conditions. More importantly, you’ll have a clear path forward for treatment that actually addresses your specific problem.

EMG Nerve Test Process

Simple Process, Clear Results

Your EMG testing appointment typically takes 45-60 minutes and involves two main components. First, we perform nerve conduction studies using small electrical pulses to measure how well your nerves transmit signals. This part feels like mild static electricity and helps us identify nerve damage or compression.

Next comes the electromyography portion, where we use thin needle electrodes to measure electrical activity in your muscles. You’ll contract specific muscles while we record the signals, which tells us whether muscle weakness stems from nerve problems or muscle disorders themselves.

Throughout the entire process, we explain what we’re seeing and answer your questions. Most patients find the procedure much more comfortable than they expected. By the end of your appointment, we’ll have detailed information about your nerve and muscle function, plus a clear explanation of what the results mean for your treatment options.

Comprehensive EMG Diagnostic Testing

Complete Neuromuscular Evaluation

Your EMG testing includes both electromyography and nerve conduction studies in one comprehensive appointment. We test multiple muscle groups and nerve pathways to get a complete picture of your neuromuscular function, not just isolated areas.

This thorough approach is especially important for Hadley Park patients who may be dealing with conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, or other nerve compression issues common in our area. We also evaluate for muscle disorders that can mimic nerve problems but require completely different treatment approaches.

You’ll receive detailed results the same day, along with our recommendations for next steps. Whether that means targeted treatments, referrals to specialists, or lifestyle modifications, you’ll leave with a clear action plan based on objective diagnostic findings rather than guesswork.

Most patients find EMG testing much more comfortable than they anticipated. The nerve conduction portion feels like mild static electricity or small rubber band snaps. The needle EMG involves thin electrodes that cause brief, minor discomfort similar to acupuncture needles. The entire procedure is well-tolerated by the vast majority of patients, and any discomfort stops immediately when the test ends. We take breaks as needed and explain each step so you know what to expect throughout the process.
EMG and nerve conduction studies can diagnose a wide range of neuromuscular conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopathy, muscle disorders, and various forms of nerve compression. The testing helps distinguish between nerve problems and muscle disorders, identifies the specific location of nerve damage, and determines the severity of the condition. This information is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan rather than using generic approaches that may not address your specific problem.
A complete EMG and nerve conduction study typically takes 45-60 minutes, depending on how many areas we need to evaluate. We provide results and interpretation the same day as your test, so you won’t be waiting weeks wondering what the findings mean. During the procedure, we often explain what we’re seeing in real-time, and afterward, we’ll sit down to discuss the complete results and what they mean for your treatment options moving forward.
Preparation for EMG testing is minimal, but there are a few important guidelines. Avoid using lotions, oils, or creams on your skin the day of testing, as these can interfere with electrode placement. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood-thinning medications, let us know in advance, though most patients can continue their regular medications. You can eat normally before the test and drive yourself to and from the appointment.
Most major insurance plans cover EMG testing when it’s medically necessary for diagnosing unexplained muscle weakness, numbness, tingling, or nerve pain. We work with most insurance providers and will verify your coverage before your appointment. Our billing team can explain your specific benefits and any out-of-pocket costs upfront, so there are no surprises. If you have questions about coverage, call our office and we’ll check your benefits and provide a clear explanation of what to expect.
EMG and nerve conduction studies complement each other to provide a complete picture of your neuromuscular function. Nerve conduction studies measure how well electrical signals travel along your nerves using surface electrodes and mild electrical stimulation. EMG uses thin needle electrodes to measure electrical activity directly in your muscles. Together, these tests can distinguish between nerve problems and muscle disorders, pinpoint the exact location of nerve damage, and determine whether issues stem from nerve compression, muscle disease, or other neuromuscular conditions.
