Professional electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your muscle weakness, numbness, or tingling.
Reviews
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 – these aren’t things you should just live with.
EMG testing gives you concrete answers. Within an hour, you’ll know if you’re dealing with carpal tunnel syndrome, a pinched nerve, diabetic neuropathy, or something else entirely. No more guessing. No more wondering if it’s all in your head.
The relief that comes with a clear diagnosis is immediate. You can stop googling symptoms at 2 AM and start focusing on the right treatment. Your doctor gets the detailed information they need to help you feel better, and you get the peace of mind that comes with knowing exactly what you’re dealing with.
We’ve been serving Coney Island and Brooklyn residents for years, specializing in diagnosing complex nerve and muscle conditions. Our board-certified physicians have performed thousands of EMG tests, giving patients the accurate diagnoses they need to move forward with treatment.
We’re not a massive hospital system where you’re just another number. We’re specialists who chose to focus on spine and nerve conditions because we see how much these problems affect people’s daily lives. Every test we perform gets the attention it deserves.
When you come to us for EMG testing, you’re working with doctors who understand the difference between carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndrome, who can spot the subtle signs of early diabetic neuropathy, and who know how to explain your results in terms that actually make sense.
Your EMG test has two parts, and the whole thing takes about 30 to 60 minutes. First, we do the nerve conduction study. We place small electrodes on your skin and send tiny electrical pulses to measure how well your nerves are working. It feels like small static shocks – uncomfortable for a second, but not painful.
Next comes the actual electromyography. We insert a very thin needle electrode into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. The needle is much thinner than what you’d get for a blood draw. You’ll feel a quick pinch going in, then we ask you to tense and relax the muscle while we record the signals.
We test the exact areas where you’re having problems, plus some comparison spots to get the full picture. Throughout the test, we explain what we’re seeing and what it means. By the time you leave, you’ll have a clear understanding of your results and what the next steps should be.
Ready to get started?
Your EMG testing appointment includes both nerve conduction studies and electromyography testing of all relevant muscle groups. We test the specific areas where you’re experiencing symptoms, plus related nerve pathways to get a complete picture of what’s happening.
You’ll receive a detailed report that clearly explains your results, not just medical jargon that leaves you confused. We coordinate directly with your referring physician and provide recommendations for treatment based on what we find. If you need follow-up care, we can connect you with the right specialists.
Most insurance plans cover EMG testing when it’s medically necessary, and we handle the billing directly. No surprise bills or complicated paperwork on your end. We know you’re already dealing with enough – the administrative side shouldn’t add to your stress.
