Precise nerve and muscle diagnostic testing that reveals what’s really causing your pain, numbness, or weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness in your hands. Tingling in your feet. Muscle weakness that makes simple tasks harder than they should be. Maybe shooting pain down your leg that comes and goes without warning.
The uncertainty might be worse than the symptoms themselves. You need answers, not more guessing.
Our nerve and muscle testing gives you those answers. Through electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies, we measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning. We can pinpoint nerve damage, identify muscle disorders, and determine the severity of your condition.
When you know what’s actually happening in your body, you can move forward with the right treatment. No more wondering if it’s serious. No more trying treatments that don’t address the real problem.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving patients in Wakefield and throughout the Bronx with comprehensive spine and nerve care. We understand that nerve and muscle problems affect every aspect of your daily life.
We’ve performed thousands of electrodiagnostic tests, helping patients get accurate diagnoses for conditions ranging from carpal tunnel syndrome to complex nerve compression disorders. Our team combines advanced diagnostic technology with the experience to interpret results correctly.
You’re not just getting a test. You’re getting answers from doctors who understand what your symptoms mean and what comes next.
Your nerve and muscle evaluation typically involves two main tests that work together to give us a complete picture of what’s happening.
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 your nerves are damaged and where the problem is located.
Next is the electromyography (EMG), where a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. This tells us if your muscles are responding normally to nerve signals and helps us distinguish between nerve problems and muscle disorders.
Both tests are performed in our office and usually take 30 to 60 minutes total. Most patients describe the sensations as uncomfortable but not painful. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what we found and what it means for your treatment options.

Your nerve and muscle testing includes a thorough evaluation designed to identify the exact cause of your symptoms. We test multiple nerve pathways and muscle groups to get a complete picture of your condition.
Our electrodiagnostic testing can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, muscle disorders, and various forms of nerve compression. We use state-of-the-art equipment that provides precise measurements while minimizing discomfort.
You’ll receive detailed results the same day, including a comprehensive report that explains your diagnosis in terms you can understand. We coordinate with your referring physician and can recommend appropriate specialists for treatment based on our findings. Many patients tell us they finally feel like someone understands what they’ve been going through.
