Precise electromyography testing that identifies exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’re tired of living with unexplained symptoms. The numbness in your hands, the shooting pain down your leg, the muscle weakness that makes simple tasks difficult. You’ve probably had doctors tell you it’s “probably nothing” or suggest treatments that don’t address the real problem.
EMG testing changes that. This comprehensive diagnostic procedure measures the electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, giving us a clear picture of exactly what’s happening in your body. Within an hour, we can identify conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, or muscle disorders that other tests might miss.
You’ll walk out with definitive answers instead of more questions. No more wondering if the pain is in your head or if you’ll ever feel normal again. Just clear, actionable information that leads to the right treatment plan.
NY Spine Medicine brings specialized neurological diagnostic services to Islands of Doral and surrounding South Florida communities. We focus exclusively on spine and nerve-related conditions, which means every EMG test is interpreted by doctors who see these cases daily, not occasionally.
Our team includes board-certified neurologists and physiatrists who understand that accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment. We’ve performed thousands of EMG and nerve conduction studies, developing the expertise to catch subtle abnormalities that less experienced providers might overlook.
Located conveniently in Islands of Doral, we serve patients throughout Miami-Dade County who need expert neurological evaluation without the long wait times typical of hospital-based neurology departments.
The EMG testing process involves two complementary parts that work together to evaluate your nerve and muscle function. First, we perform nerve conduction studies using small electrical pulses to measure how quickly and effectively your nerves transmit signals. You’ll feel brief, mild electrical sensations, but nothing painful or dangerous.
Next comes the electromyography portion, where we insert thin needle electrodes into specific muscles to record their electrical activity. The needles are much thinner than those used for blood draws, and most patients find this part more tolerable than they expected. We test muscles both at rest and during light contraction to identify abnormal patterns.
The entire procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on which nerves and muscles need evaluation. You’ll receive preliminary results immediately, with a detailed written report following within 24-48 hours. This report explains exactly what we found and what it means for your treatment options.
