Finally understand what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness with precise nerve and muscle testing.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that interfere with your daily life. Maybe it’s numbness in your hands that makes typing difficult. Or tingling in your feet that keeps you awake at night. Perhaps muscle weakness that’s affecting your grip or making stairs challenging.
Nerve and muscle testing gives you concrete answers. Through electromyography and nerve conduction studies, we can pinpoint exactly which nerves or muscles aren’t functioning properly. This isn’t guesswork or trial-and-error treatment.
When you know the specific problem, you can address it directly. No more wondering if your symptoms are “all in your head” or if they’ll just go away on their own. You get a clear diagnosis that leads to targeted treatment that actually works.
NY Spine Medicine has been helping West Grapeland Heights residents get accurate diagnoses for their nerve and muscle problems. We understand that living with unexplained symptoms is frustrating and concerning.
Our team focuses specifically on neuromuscular diagnostics. We’ve seen thousands of cases and know how to interpret even subtle findings that other providers might miss. When you’re dealing with symptoms that affect your work, sleep, or daily activities, you need specialists who get it right the first time.
We’ve built our practice around one simple principle: accurate diagnosis leads to effective treatment. That’s why we invest in advanced testing equipment and ongoing training to stay current with the latest diagnostic techniques.
Your nerve and muscle testing appointment typically takes 45 minutes to an hour. We start with a detailed discussion of your symptoms, when they started, and what activities make them better or worse.
For the nerve conduction study, we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical impulses to measure how quickly and effectively your nerves transmit signals. It feels like a brief, mild shock – uncomfortable but not painful.
The EMG portion involves inserting a thin needle electrode into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. We test muscles both at rest and when you contract them. Most people describe it as similar to getting blood drawn.
You’ll get your results immediately after testing. We’ll explain exactly what we found, what it means for your condition, and discuss your treatment options. No waiting weeks for answers or wondering what comes next.

Our nerve and muscle testing evaluates both sensory and motor nerve function. We can diagnose conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, and various muscle disorders.
The testing is particularly valuable for West Grapeland Heights residents who work in repetitive motion jobs or have diabetes, as these increase your risk for nerve problems. We also frequently test patients who’ve had injuries or are experiencing age-related changes in nerve function.
Each test is customized based on your specific symptoms and suspected conditions. If you’re having hand numbness, we focus on median and ulnar nerve testing. For leg symptoms, we evaluate the nerves that control sensation and movement in your lower extremities.
We work with your insurance to ensure coverage and provide detailed reports to your referring physician or specialist. This coordination ensures your treatment plan moves forward smoothly once we have your diagnosis.
