Nerve Testing Specialists Miami

We Know Nerve Problems

NY Spine Medicine has been helping South Florida residents get accurate diagnoses for their nerve and muscle problems. We’re not trying to rush you through a quick appointment or guess at what might be wrong.

Our specialists understand that nerve issues can be complex. What feels like simple hand numbness could be coming from your neck. That leg pain might not be a muscle problem at all.

We take the time to do comprehensive testing because getting the right diagnosis the first time saves you months of ineffective treatments and ongoing frustration.

Nerve Conduction Study Process

Here's What Actually Happens

First, we’ll talk through your symptoms and medical history. When did this start? What makes it better or worse? Where exactly do you feel the problems? This context helps us focus the testing on the right areas.

The nerve conduction study involves placing small electrodes on your skin and sending mild electrical pulses to measure how fast and strong your nerve signals are. The EMG uses a thin needle electrode to check muscle activity. Yes, there’s some discomfort, but most people tolerate it fine and the whole process typically takes 30-60 minutes.

You’ll get your results the same day. We’ll explain what the tests show, what it means for your condition, and discuss your treatment options. No waiting weeks to find out what’s wrong or getting results you can’t understand.

Comprehensive Nerve Function Testing

Complete Diagnostic Evaluation

Our nerve and muscle testing covers the full spectrum of neurological conditions. We test for carpal tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, pinched nerves, herniated disc complications, and other conditions affecting nerve function.

The testing includes both motor and sensory nerve evaluation, muscle response testing, and nerve conduction velocity measurements. We check multiple nerve pathways to get a complete picture of what’s happening, not just focus on one obvious area.

You’ll receive detailed results that clearly show which nerves or muscles aren’t functioning normally, how severe the problem is, and whether it’s getting worse. This information is crucial for your doctor to develop an effective treatment plan that actually addresses your specific condition.

How painful is nerve and muscle testing?

Most patients describe the nerve conduction study as feeling like small electric shocks or static electricity. It’s uncomfortable but not unbearable. The EMG involves thin needle insertions that feel similar to acupuncture needles. There might be some muscle soreness afterward, but serious pain is rare. The entire test usually takes 30-60 minutes, and any discomfort stops immediately when the test ends. We explain each step as we go so you know what to expect.

What conditions can nerve and muscle testing diagnose?

These tests can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, sciatica, herniated disc nerve compression, peripheral neuropathy, muscle diseases, and many other conditions causing numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain. The testing shows us exactly where nerve damage or muscle problems are occurring and how severe they are. This helps distinguish between different conditions that might cause similar symptoms, ensuring you get the right treatment for your specific problem.

How long does it take to get results?

You’ll get your results the same day as your test. We review the findings with you immediately after the testing is complete, explaining what the results mean in plain language. You’ll understand whether your nerves and muscles are functioning normally, where any problems are located, and how severe any damage might be. We also provide a detailed written report for your referring physician so your treatment can begin right away.

Do I need to prepare anything before the test?

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. If you’re on blood thinners, let us know beforehand. Don’t stop taking any medications unless specifically instructed by your doctor. Bring a list of your current medications and any previous test results related to your nerve or muscle problems.

Will my insurance cover nerve and muscle testing?

Most insurance plans cover EMG and nerve conduction studies when they’re medically necessary to diagnose your symptoms. We work with most major insurance providers and will verify your coverage before your appointment. These tests are considered standard diagnostic procedures for nerve and muscle problems, so approval is typically straightforward. We’ll handle the insurance paperwork and let you know about any potential out-of-pocket costs upfront.

What's the difference between EMG and nerve conduction studies?

Nerve conduction studies test how well electrical signals travel through your nerves by placing electrodes on your skin and measuring signal speed and strength. EMG tests muscle activity using thin needle electrodes inserted into specific muscles to see if they’re responding normally to nerve signals. We often do both tests together because they provide different but complementary information. The combination gives us a complete picture of both nerve function and muscle response, leading to more accurate diagnosis.
