Advanced electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your symptoms, so you can finally move forward with the right treatment.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness long enough. Maybe it started as occasional discomfort, but now it’s affecting your work, your sleep, or simple daily tasks.
EMG testing gives you concrete answers. Instead of wondering if your symptoms will get worse or trying treatments that might not fit your specific condition, you’ll know exactly which nerves or muscles are involved and how severe the problem really is.
When you have a clear diagnosis, everything changes. Your treatment becomes targeted instead of guesswork. You can make informed decisions about your health instead of hoping the next approach will work. Most importantly, you can stop the cycle of uncertainty that’s been weighing on you.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Greenwich Village and the surrounding NYC area with specialized diagnostic testing for years. Our team focuses specifically on spine, nerve, and muscle disorders, which means we’ve seen your symptoms before and know how to get to the bottom of them.
We use advanced EMG and nerve conduction testing equipment, and our physicians are board-certified specialists who understand the complexities of nerve and muscle function. We’ve helped thousands of patients get accurate diagnoses and move forward with effective treatment plans.
You’re not just another appointment here. You’re working with specialists who chose to focus on exactly what you’re dealing with.
The EMG test has two parts: nerve conduction study and electromyography. First, small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how well your nerves send electrical signals. You’ll feel brief, mild electrical pulses, but nothing painful.
Next, a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure their electrical activity. The needle is much thinner than those used for blood draws, and while you’ll feel it, most patients find it much more tolerable than they expected.
The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles need testing. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what they mean for your specific situation. No waiting weeks to find out what’s wrong, no wondering if the test showed anything significant.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography to give a complete picture of what’s happening. This combination can identify conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders, and pinched nerves throughout your body.
You’ll receive detailed results that day, not a vague summary weeks later. We explain exactly which areas are affected, how severe the problem is, and what treatment options make sense for your specific diagnosis. We also coordinate with your other healthcare providers to ensure everyone’s on the same page.
The testing is designed to be as comfortable as possible while still providing the precise information needed for an accurate diagnosis. Most patients are surprised by how manageable the process is and relieved to finally have concrete answers about their symptoms.
