Finally Know What's Causing Your Symptoms

You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for weeks or months. Your primary care doctor suspects a nerve problem, but you need definitive answers. EMG testing gives you exactly that – precise information about how your nerves and muscles are functioning.

This isn’t about managing symptoms anymore. It’s about understanding what’s actually happening in your body so you can get the right treatment. When you know whether it’s carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, or something else entirely, you can stop guessing and start healing.

EMG Nerve Conduction Study Process

Simple Testing, Clear Results

Our EMG testing process starts with a brief consultation about your symptoms and medical history. We’ll discuss when the numbness or pain started, what makes it better or worse, and which activities are affected.

The actual testing has two parts. First is the nerve conduction study, where small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how well electrical signals travel through your nerves. Then comes the EMG portion, where a thin needle electrode records the electrical activity in your muscles.

Most patients describe the sensation as similar to getting blood drawn or receiving acupuncture. The entire process takes 30-45 minutes. You’ll see the results on the screen as the test progresses, and we’ll explain what each measurement means for your specific condition.

After testing, you’ll receive a complete report and treatment recommendations. If additional specialists are needed, we provide referrals. Many patients leave with a clear diagnosis and treatment plan the same day.

Most patients describe EMG testing as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. The nerve conduction portion feels like small electrical pulses on your skin – similar to static electricity but controlled. The EMG needle portion feels like getting blood drawn or acupuncture. The needles are very thin, and most people tolerate it well. The entire test takes 30-45 minutes, and any discomfort stops immediately when the test is finished. Many patients say it was much easier than they expected.
EMG testing can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, and other conditions affecting nerve and muscle function. It’s particularly useful for determining the exact location and severity of nerve damage. The test can also rule out certain conditions, which is just as valuable when you’re trying to understand what’s causing your symptoms. We’ll explain how your specific symptoms relate to the test findings.
You’ll see your results immediately during the test and receive a complete explanation the same day. Unlike many medical tests where you wait days or weeks, EMG results are available right away. We’ll review the findings with you immediately after testing, explain what they mean for your condition, and discuss treatment options. You’ll also receive a written report to take with you or share with other healthcare providers.
Preparation is minimal. Avoid using lotions or oils on your skin the day of testing, as they can interfere with the electrodes. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood-thinning medications, let our office know when scheduling. You can eat normally and take your regular medications unless specifically instructed otherwise. We’ll provide complete preparation instructions when you schedule your appointment.
Most insurance plans cover EMG testing when it’s medically necessary, which it typically is when you’re experiencing nerve-related symptoms. We accept most major insurance plans and handle the authorization process directly with your insurance company. We’ll verify your coverage before your appointment and explain any out-of-pocket costs upfront. Our billing team works directly with insurance providers to minimize your paperwork and ensure proper claim processing.
EMG and nerve conduction studies work together to give a complete picture of your nerve and muscle function. Nerve conduction studies measure how well electrical signals travel through your nerves using electrodes placed on your skin. EMG measures the electrical activity within your muscles using thin needle electrodes. Together, they can pinpoint exactly where nerve problems are occurring and how severely they’re affecting muscle function. Most patients receive both tests in the same appointment for a comprehensive evaluation.
