No more guessing. No more wondering if it’s all in your head. Just clear, measurable results that guide your next steps toward feeling better.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Berkeley Heights and surrounding communities for years, specializing in comprehensive neurological diagnostics. Our team brings extensive experience in nerve conduction studies and electromyography testing.
Every test is performed by our board-certified specialists who understand the nuances of nerve and muscle function. We’ve helped thousands of patients get accurate diagnoses for conditions ranging from carpal tunnel syndrome to diabetic neuropathy.
You’re not just getting a test. You’re getting expertise that comes from years of interpreting results and helping patients understand their conditions.
Your nerve and muscle testing appointment typically takes 45-60 minutes. First, we’ll review your symptoms and medical history to understand exactly what you’re experiencing.
For the nerve conduction study, small electrodes are placed on your skin. Mild electrical pulses measure how quickly and effectively your nerves transmit signals. The EMG portion uses a thin needle electrode to evaluate muscle activity and detect any abnormalities.
Most patients find the testing tolerable, with only mild discomfort during the needle portion. You’ll receive your results immediately after testing, along with a clear explanation of what the findings mean for your condition and treatment options.

Your testing includes both electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies to evaluate the complete picture of your nerve and muscle function. We test motor nerves that control muscle movement, sensory nerves that handle feeling and sensation, and muscle tissue response.
The evaluation can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, muscle disorders, and nerve compression syndromes. We use state-of-the-art equipment that provides precise measurements and reliable results.
You’ll leave with a comprehensive report detailing your results, a clear diagnosis when possible, and recommendations for treatment. Most insurance plans cover nerve and muscle testing when medically necessary.
