Muscle and Nerve Evaluation Process

Simple Testing, Clear Results

Your nerve and muscle testing appointment typically takes 45-60 minutes. We start by discussing your symptoms, when they started, and how they affect your daily life.

The EMG portion involves placing small electrodes on your skin to measure muscle activity. For nerve conduction studies, we use mild electrical impulses to test how well signals travel through your nerves. Most patients describe the sensation as brief and tolerable.

You’ll receive your results immediately after testing. We explain what the findings mean, discuss treatment options, and coordinate with your referring physician. You leave with a clear understanding of your condition and next steps.

Comprehensive Nerve Diagnostic Testing

Everything You Need in One Visit

Your comprehensive evaluation includes both electromyography and nerve conduction studies. We test sensory nerves that control feeling and motor nerves that control movement and strength.

This combination identifies conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, radiculopathy, and various muscle disorders. We also evaluate nerve compression, damage from injury, and degenerative conditions.

Each test is performed by experienced technicians under physician supervision. You receive detailed results, written reports for your medical records, and clear recommendations for treatment or further evaluation if needed.

Does nerve and muscle testing hurt?

Most patients tolerate nerve and muscle testing well. The EMG involves small needle electrodes that may cause brief discomfort similar to getting blood drawn. Nerve conduction studies use mild electrical impulses that feel like small shocks or taps. The sensations are temporary and stop immediately when testing ends. We explain each step and work at your comfort level throughout the process. Many patients say the relief of finally getting answers outweighs any temporary discomfort during testing.

How long do nerve and muscle test results take?

You get your results immediately after testing. Our physicians review the findings with you right away, explaining what the tests show and what it means for your condition. You’ll receive a detailed written report before leaving, and we send copies to your referring physician the same day. There’s no waiting weeks for results or wondering what the tests revealed. This immediate feedback allows you to start planning your treatment or next steps without delay.

What conditions can nerve and muscle testing diagnose?

Nerve and muscle testing can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, sciatica, pinched nerves, muscle weakness disorders, and peripheral neuropathy. We also identify nerve damage from injuries, compression syndromes, and degenerative conditions affecting nerve function. The tests help determine if symptoms are coming from nerve problems, muscle issues, or both. This precise diagnosis is crucial because treatment approaches differ significantly depending on whether the problem involves nerves, muscles, or nerve-muscle connections.

Should I prepare anything before my nerve testing appointment?

Avoid using lotions or oils on your skin the day of testing, as they can interfere with electrode placement. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. Bring a list of your current medications and any previous test results related to your symptoms. If you have a pacemaker or other implanted device, let us know when scheduling. Most medications don’t need to be stopped, but we’ll review your specific situation during your appointment.

Does insurance cover nerve and muscle testing?

Most insurance plans cover medically necessary nerve and muscle testing when ordered by your physician. We accept most major insurance plans and verify your coverage before your appointment. Our billing team can explain your specific benefits and any out-of-pocket costs upfront. If you have questions about coverage, call us with your insurance information and we’ll check your benefits. We believe cost shouldn’t prevent you from getting the answers you need about your symptoms.

What happens after my nerve and muscle testing?

After reviewing your results, we coordinate with your referring physician to discuss treatment options. Depending on your diagnosis, this might include physical therapy, medications, injections, lifestyle modifications, or surgical consultation. We provide detailed recommendations and can help connect you with appropriate specialists if needed. Many conditions identified through nerve and muscle testing respond well to early treatment, so getting started promptly often leads to better outcomes. You’ll have a clear roadmap for addressing your symptoms based on objective test results.
