You’ve been dealing with unexplained symptoms long enough. That tingling in your hands, the weakness in your legs, the shooting pain down your arm – you need answers, not more guessing.
EMG testing gives you those answers. This diagnostic procedure measures the electrical activity in your muscles and nerves, showing us exactly where the problem is and how severe it might be. No more wondering if it’s serious. No more treatments that don’t work because nobody knows what they’re treating.
When you know what’s actually wrong, you can finally move forward with the right treatment plan. Whether it’s carpal tunnel syndrome, a pinched nerve, or something else entirely, you’ll have the clarity you need to get better.

The EMG test has two parts: nerve conduction study and electromyography. During the nerve conduction study, small electrodes are placed on your skin and mild electrical pulses measure how well your nerves send signals. It feels like a quick tap or mild shock – uncomfortable for a moment but not painful.
For the electromyography portion, a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. You’ll be asked to relax and then gently contract the muscle. Most patients say it feels similar to getting a vaccination – brief discomfort that passes quickly.
The entire test typically takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles need evaluation. Your doctor will discuss the results with you right after the test, explaining what we found and what it means for your treatment options.
