EMG Diagnostic Testing Process

Simple Process, Clear Results

Your EMG test starts with a brief consultation where we review your symptoms and medical history. This helps us target the specific nerves and muscles that need testing.

The actual testing involves two parts. First, nerve conduction studies use small electrical pulses to measure how well your nerves transmit signals. Then, electromyography uses a thin needle electrode to record electrical activity in your muscles. Most patients find the discomfort minimal and temporary.

The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which areas need testing. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what they mean for your condition and treatment options.

Most patients describe EMG testing as uncomfortable rather than truly painful. The nerve conduction portion feels like small electrical pulses or static shocks. The needle EMG involves inserting thin electrodes into muscles, which feels similar to getting an injection. The discomfort is brief and stops immediately when the test ends. Many patients say it’s much less uncomfortable than they expected, and the relief of finally getting answers outweighs any temporary discomfort during the procedure.
EMG testing typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on how many nerves and muscles need evaluation. We will discuss your results with you immediately after the test, explaining what we found and what it means for your condition. You’ll also receive a detailed written report that gets sent to your referring physician. This same-day approach means you don’t have to wait weeks wondering about your results or what the next steps should be.
EMG testing can diagnose a wide range of nerve and muscle conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves in the neck or back, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders, and complications from herniated discs. It’s particularly useful for determining whether symptoms like numbness, tingling, or weakness are coming from nerve damage, muscle problems, or spinal issues. The test helps distinguish between different types of nerve problems and shows exactly where the issue is located.
Preparation for EMG testing is minimal. Avoid using lotions or oils on your skin the day of the test, as they can interfere with the electrodes. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood-thinning medications, let our office know when you schedule. You can eat normally and take your regular medications unless we specifically instruct otherwise. The most important preparation is bringing a list of your current symptoms and any previous test results.
Most major insurance plans cover EMG testing when it’s medically necessary and ordered by your physician. We accept most insurance plans and will verify your coverage before your appointment. Our office staff can provide cost estimates and discuss payment options if you have any out-of-pocket expenses. Since EMG testing is a standard diagnostic procedure for nerve and muscle problems, insurance approval is typically straightforward when you have a proper referral.
After your EMG test, we will explain your results and what they mean for your specific condition. You’ll receive recommendations for next steps, which might include treatment options, additional testing, or referrals to specialists. A detailed report gets sent to your referring physician so they can incorporate the findings into your overall treatment plan. We will also provide you with a copy of your results and any educational materials about your diagnosed condition to help you understand your situation better.
