Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for weeks or months. Maybe it started as a minor annoyance and now it’s affecting your work, sleep, or daily activities. You need answers, not more guessing.
EMG testing gives you those answers. This diagnostic test measures the electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, showing us exactly where the problem is and how severe it might be. No more wondering if it’s serious or if it’ll get worse.
Within an hour, you’ll know if you’re dealing with a pinched nerve, muscle disorder, or something that needs immediate attention. More importantly, you’ll have a clear path forward instead of living with uncertainty and worry.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Richmond and the surrounding areas for over 15 years. Our team specializes in spine and nerve-related conditions, with thousands of EMG tests performed right here in the community.
What sets our practice apart is the combination of advanced diagnostic equipment and the experience to interpret results accurately. You’re not just getting a test – you’re getting answers from specialists who understand exactly what your symptoms mean and what to do about them.
Our focus stays on getting you diagnosed quickly and started on treatment that actually works for your specific condition.
First, you’ll meet with our specialist to discuss your symptoms and medical history. This helps us target the testing to your specific concerns and ensures accurate results.
The EMG test itself involves placing small electrodes on your skin and inserting thin needles into specific muscles. The needles measure electrical activity while your muscles are at rest and when you contract them. The nerve conduction study uses surface electrodes to test how well your nerves send signals.
Most tests take 30-60 minutes depending on which areas need evaluation. You’ll get your results immediately, along with a clear explanation of what they mean for your condition. If treatment is needed, you’ll leave with a specific plan and next steps already scheduled.
