Advanced electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that nobody can explain. The numbness in your hands keeps you awake. The tingling in your feet makes walking uncomfortable. Your muscle weakness is getting worse, and you’re tired of guessing what’s causing it.
EMG testing changes that. This diagnostic procedure measures the electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, giving us precise information about where the problem is and how severe it might be.
When we complete your electromyography and nerve conduction study, you’ll have definitive answers. No more wondering if it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, or something more serious. You’ll know exactly what’s happening in your body and what we can do about it.
We at NY Spine Medicine have been providing specialized diagnostic testing and pain management services to South Florida patients for years. Our board-certified physicians understand that accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment.
We’ve performed thousands of EMG tests and nerve conduction studies. Our team knows how to get reliable results while keeping you comfortable throughout the process.
Located conveniently in Le Jeune Gardens, we serve patients throughout the area who need answers about their neurological symptoms. We accept most insurance plans and work directly with your referring physician to ensure coordinated care.
Your EMG test typically takes 30 to 60 minutes and involves two parts. First, we perform nerve conduction studies by placing small electrodes on your skin. We send mild electrical pulses through specific nerves to measure how fast and strong the signals travel.
Next comes the electromyography portion. We insert a thin needle electrode into the muscles we need to evaluate. This measures the electrical activity when your muscles are at rest and when you contract them. You might feel slight discomfort, similar to getting an injection, but most patients tolerate it well.
Throughout the test, you’ll hear sounds from the EMG machine and see wave patterns on the monitor. We’ll explain what we’re seeing as we go. Once complete, we review your results immediately and discuss what they mean for your specific situation and treatment options.

Your EMG testing includes both electromyography and nerve conduction studies for a complete picture of your nerve and muscle function. We test multiple muscle groups and nerve pathways relevant to your symptoms.
You’ll receive same-day discussion of results with clear explanation of findings. We provide detailed reports to your referring physician within 24 hours, including specific recommendations for treatment or additional testing if needed.
Our testing can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, radiculopathy, peripheral neuropathy, myopathy, and other neuromuscular disorders. This precision helps your treatment team develop the most effective approach for your specific condition.
