Professional electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that don’t make sense. Numbness that comes and goes. Tingling that keeps you awake. Weakness that makes simple tasks frustrating.
EMG testing gives you concrete answers. Instead of guessing what’s causing your nerve problems, you’ll know exactly which nerves aren’t working properly and why. The test measures electrical activity in your muscles and how well your nerves conduct signals.
Most patients walk out with a clear understanding of their condition and a plan to address it. No more wondering if it’s serious. No more trying treatments that might not work. Just real information you can use to get better.
We’ve been helping North Arlington residents understand their nerve and muscle problems for years. Our team focuses specifically on spine-related conditions and knows how to spot issues other doctors might miss.
You’re not just getting a test here. You’re getting doctors who take time to explain what we’re looking for and what your results actually mean. We combine advanced diagnostic equipment with the kind of straightforward communication that helps you make informed decisions about your health.
The EMG test has two parts that work together to give a complete picture of your nerve function. First, nerve conduction studies use small electrical pulses to measure how fast signals travel through your nerves. You’ll feel brief sensations, but nothing painful.
Next, the electromyography portion uses thin needles to record electrical activity directly from your muscles. The needles are much thinner than those used for blood draws, and most people find it less uncomfortable than they expected.
The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which areas need testing. You’ll get results the same day, along with an explanation of what they mean for your specific situation and what treatment options make sense.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and muscle testing to evaluate different aspects of nerve function. We test motor nerves that control muscle movement, sensory nerves that handle feeling and sensation, and muscle response to nerve signals.
Common conditions we diagnose through EMG testing include carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, and muscle disorders. Many North Arlington patients come in with work-related repetitive strain injuries or back problems that affect nerve function.
You’ll receive a detailed report of findings plus recommendations for treatment. If physical therapy, medication, or other interventions can help, you’ll know exactly what to pursue. If surgery might be necessary, you’ll understand why and what it would accomplish.
