Advanced nerve and muscle testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your pain, numbness, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that affect everything you do. The numbness in your hands makes work difficult. The weakness in your legs changes how you move. The tingling keeps you up at night wondering what’s happening to your body.
Nerve and muscle testing gives you concrete answers. When we complete your EMG and nerve conduction study, you’ll know exactly which nerves or muscles aren’t functioning properly. You’ll understand whether your symptoms stem from nerve compression, muscle disorders, or other identifiable conditions.
Most importantly, you’ll have a clear path forward. No more guessing about treatment options or wondering if your symptoms will get worse. With precise diagnostic results, we can recommend targeted treatments that address the actual source of your problems.
NY Spine Medicine focuses specifically on diagnosing and treating spine-related conditions affecting South Florida residents. We’ve built our reputation on thorough diagnostic testing and clear communication with patients who need answers about their symptoms.
Located in Medley, FL, we serve patients throughout the greater Miami area who are dealing with nerve and muscle issues. We understand that getting accurate test results is just the first step – you also need someone who can explain what those results mean for your specific situation.
Every test is performed with precision and interpreted by specialists who see these conditions regularly. You’re not just getting a test – you’re getting expertise that comes from years of helping people understand and address their nerve and muscle problems.
Your nerve and muscle testing appointment starts with a discussion about your specific symptoms. We need to understand when they started, what makes them better or worse, and how they’re affecting your daily life. This information helps us focus the testing on the areas most likely causing your problems.
The actual testing involves two main components. Electromyography (EMG) measures electrical activity in your muscles to identify muscle disorders or nerve problems affecting muscle function. Nerve conduction studies test how well electrical signals travel through your nerves, revealing areas where nerves may be compressed or damaged.
During testing, small electrodes are placed on your skin or thin needles may be inserted into specific muscles. You’ll feel some discomfort, but most people tolerate the procedure well. The entire process typically takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on which areas need evaluation.
Once testing is complete, we review the results with you immediately. You’ll see the actual nerve conduction patterns and muscle responses on the screen while we explain what they indicate about your condition.

Your nerve and muscle testing includes both EMG and nerve conduction studies performed during the same appointment. This comprehensive approach gives us a complete picture of how your nerves and muscles are functioning together, rather than looking at just one aspect of the problem.
We test the specific areas related to your symptoms, whether that’s your arms, legs, back, or neck. For patients with widespread symptoms, we can evaluate multiple nerve pathways to identify patterns that might indicate systemic conditions versus localized problems.
After testing, you receive a detailed report explaining the findings in terms you can understand. We also provide specific recommendations for next steps, whether that involves additional imaging, referrals to specialists, or treatment options we can provide. Many patients find that having concrete test results helps them make better decisions about their care and gives them confidence in their treatment plan.
