Advanced electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your muscle weakness, numbness, or tingling.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with unexplained symptoms long enough. That tingling in your hands, the muscle weakness that comes and goes, the shooting pain down your leg – you need real answers, not more guesswork.
EMG testing gives you those answers. Within minutes, we can measure how well your nerves and muscles are actually functioning. No more wondering if it’s “all in your head” or if you’ll ever get better.
The test shows us exactly where the problem is happening – whether it’s compressed nerves, damaged muscle tissue, or something else entirely. Once we know what we’re dealing with, we can create a treatment plan that actually works for your specific condition.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving patients throughout South Florida for years, specializing in comprehensive spine and nerve care. We understand that getting an accurate diagnosis is the first step toward feeling better.
Our physicians are board-certified specialists who perform hundreds of EMG tests each year. We’ve seen every type of nerve and muscle condition, from common carpal tunnel syndrome to complex neuropathies.
Located right here in Olympia Heights, we focus on giving you clear explanations about your condition and realistic expectations about treatment. No medical jargon, no rushed appointments – just straightforward answers about what’s happening with your body.
The EMG test happens in two parts, and the whole thing usually takes about 45 minutes. First comes the nerve conduction study, where small electrical pulses test how fast signals travel through your nerves. You’ll feel brief, mild shocks – uncomfortable but not painful.
Next is the actual electromyography, where a thin needle electrode measures electrical activity in your muscles. The needle goes into different muscle groups while you relax and then gently contract the muscles. Most people say it feels like getting a shot at the doctor’s office.
Throughout the test, you’ll see the results on a computer screen and hear the electrical activity through speakers. We explain what we’re finding as we go, so you’re not left wondering what’s happening. By the end of your appointment, you’ll have a clear picture of your nerve and muscle function.
