Advanced EMG and nerve conduction testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with strange sensations for months. Maybe it’s numbness in your hands that wakes you up at night. Or weakness in your legs that makes stairs feel impossible. Your regular doctor says “let’s wait and see,” but you need answers now.
Nerve and muscle testing gives you those answers. Our electromyography and nerve conduction studies measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning. No more guessing about whether it’s carpal tunnel, a pinched nerve, or something more serious.
When you know what’s actually happening in your body, you can make real decisions about treatment. You can stop wondering if that tingling means permanent damage. You can start addressing the root cause instead of just managing symptoms.
We’ve been serving Upper Saddle River and the surrounding North Jersey communities with specialized neuromuscular diagnostics. Our physicians understand that nerve and muscle problems aren’t just medical issues—they’re disruptions to your entire life.
We’ve seen thousands of patients who thought they’d never get clear answers about their symptoms. Many come to us after months of uncertainty, frustrated by vague explanations and “wait and see” approaches from other providers.
Our focus stays on you getting the information you need to move forward. We use the same advanced diagnostic equipment you’d find at major medical centers, but with the personalized attention of a practice that actually knows your name.
Your nerve and muscle evaluation starts with a detailed discussion about your symptoms. We need to understand when they started, what makes them better or worse, and how they’re affecting your daily activities.
The nerve conduction study comes first. We place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast and strong your nerve signals are. This shows us if nerves are damaged, compressed, or functioning normally. Most people describe it as feeling like small static shocks.
Next is the electromyography, where we use a thin needle electrode to measure electrical activity in your muscles. This tells us whether muscle weakness comes from the muscle itself or from nerve problems affecting the muscle. The needle is uncomfortable but not unbearable—think of it like getting blood drawn.
The entire process takes about 45 minutes to an hour. You’ll get your results immediately, along with a clear explanation of what they mean and what your next steps should be.

Your nerve and muscle testing includes both EMG and nerve conduction studies in one appointment. We don’t make you come back multiple times or send you to different facilities for different parts of the evaluation.
We test the specific areas where you’re having symptoms, plus related nerve pathways that might be contributing to the problem. If you have hand numbness, we’ll check not just your wrist but also your neck and elbow, since nerve compression can happen at multiple levels.
You’ll receive a detailed report explaining your results in plain language, not just medical jargon. We coordinate directly with your referring physician and any specialists involved in your care, so everyone has the same information about your condition.
The testing works for diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, muscle diseases, herniated disc effects, and dozens of other neuromuscular conditions. Insurance typically covers these studies when they’re medically necessary.
