Advanced electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with unexplained numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for too long. Maybe your fingers go numb at night, or your leg feels weak when you walk. Perhaps you’re dropping things more often, or that shooting pain down your arm just won’t quit.
EMG testing and nerve conduction studies give you the clear diagnosis you need. Instead of guessing what’s wrong, you’ll know exactly which nerves or muscles aren’t working properly. This means your doctor can create a treatment plan that actually targets the problem.
When you understand what’s causing your symptoms, you can stop worrying about the unknown and start focusing on getting better. No more wondering if it’s serious, no more trying treatments that don’t work because they’re not addressing the real issue.
NY Spine Medicine has been providing comprehensive diagnostic testing and spine care to the South Florida community for years. We specialize in identifying and treating complex nerve and muscle conditions that other providers often struggle to diagnose accurately.
We use advanced EMG and nerve conduction testing equipment operated by board-certified specialists who understand exactly what to look for. You’re not getting a rushed test from someone who does this occasionally – you’re getting thorough evaluation from doctors who perform these studies regularly.
Located conveniently in Westview, FL, we serve patients throughout the region who need reliable answers about their neuromuscular symptoms.
Your EMG testing appointment typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which areas need evaluation. The test has two parts: nerve conduction studies and electromyography.
During the nerve conduction portion, small electrodes are placed on your skin over the nerves being tested. You’ll feel brief, mild electrical pulses that measure how well your nerves transmit signals. It’s not painful – most people describe it as similar to static electricity.
For the EMG portion, a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. You’ll be asked to relax certain muscles, then contract them gently. The needle insertion feels like a small pinch, and most patients tolerate it well.
Throughout the test, you’ll see and hear your nerve and muscle activity on the monitor. We’ll explain what we’re finding as we go, so you understand what’s happening in real time.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and electromyography to give a complete picture of your neuromuscular function. This comprehensive approach can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders, and pinched nerves.
The testing evaluates nerve signal speed, muscle response patterns, and identifies exactly where problems are occurring along your nerve pathways. This precision helps distinguish between different conditions that might cause similar symptoms.
You’ll receive same-day results with a detailed explanation of findings. We’ll review what the test shows, what it means for your condition, and discuss treatment options that specifically address your diagnosis. Many patients leave feeling relieved to finally have clear answers about symptoms they’ve been experiencing for months or years.
