Our Nerve Testing Process

Simple Testing, Clear Results

Your nerve and muscle testing starts with a detailed discussion of your symptoms. We need to understand exactly what you’re experiencing and when it happens.

During the EMG portion, we use thin electrodes to measure electrical activity in your muscles. The nerve conduction study involves small electrical pulses that test how well your nerves transmit signals. Most patients find the testing tolerable and appreciate finally getting concrete information about their condition.

We review your results immediately after testing. You’ll understand what we found, what it means for your condition, and what treatment options make sense for your specific situation. We coordinate with your referring physician to ensure everyone is on the same page about your care.

Most nerve and muscle testing appointments take 45 minutes to an hour. The actual testing time depends on how many areas we need to evaluate based on your symptoms. We don’t rush through the process because accuracy is more important than speed. You’ll get your results explained immediately after testing, so you’re not waiting days or weeks to understand what we found. We schedule enough time so you can ask questions and fully understand your diagnosis before leaving.
The testing involves some discomfort, but most patients tolerate it well. During the nerve conduction study, you’ll feel small electrical pulses that might cause brief muscle twitches. The EMG uses thin electrodes that feel similar to acupuncture needles. Any discomfort is temporary and stops immediately when testing is complete. We explain each step as we go, so you know what to expect. The information we gain from these tests is usually worth the brief discomfort for patients who have been dealing with unexplained symptoms.
Our testing can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, peripheral neuropathy, and nerve damage from injuries or medical conditions. We can determine if your symptoms are caused by nerve compression, muscle problems, or issues with nerve signal transmission. The testing also helps us understand how severe your condition is and whether it’s progressing. This information is essential for determining the best treatment approach, whether that’s conservative care, injections, or surgical intervention.
Most insurance plans require a referral from your primary care physician or specialist for EMG and nerve conduction studies. We recommend checking with your insurance company about referral requirements before scheduling. If you’re paying out of pocket, you typically don’t need a referral. We work with referring physicians throughout Westchester, FL and can coordinate with your doctor’s office to ensure proper referral documentation. Our staff can help verify your insurance coverage and referral requirements when you call to schedule.
You’ll receive an explanation of your results immediately after testing. We review the findings with you before you leave, so you understand what we discovered and what it means for your condition. A detailed written report is sent to your referring physician within 24-48 hours. We believe patients should understand their test results right away rather than waiting for a follow-up appointment. If you have questions after reviewing everything at home, you can always call our office for clarification.
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. You can eat normally before testing and continue your regular activities afterward.
