Professional electromyography testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with symptoms that don’t make sense. Numbness that comes and goes. Muscle weakness that’s getting worse. Tingling that keeps you up at night.
EMG testing gives you concrete answers. Our nerve conduction studies measure exactly how your nerves and muscles are functioning, so your doctor can create the right treatment plan. No more guessing about what’s causing your symptoms.
Most patients leave with a clear understanding of their condition and specific next steps. That’s the difference between wondering what’s wrong and actually knowing how to fix it.
NY Spine Medicine has been serving Staten Island patients for years, specializing in comprehensive nerve and muscle testing. We understand that EMG testing can feel intimidating, which is why we focus on clear communication and patient comfort.
Located right in Grymes Hill, our facility uses advanced diagnostic equipment operated by certified technicians. Most insurance plans are accepted, and our staff handles all the coordination with your referring physician.
You’re not just getting a test – you’re getting answers from people who understand what you’re going through.
The process starts with a brief consultation where our technician explains the procedure and answers your questions. You’ll discuss your symptoms and medical history to ensure the test targets the right areas.
During nerve conduction testing, small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how electrical signals travel through your nerves. For the EMG portion, a thin needle electrode records electrical activity in your muscles. Most patients describe it as similar to getting a vaccination.
The entire appointment typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles need testing. Results are analyzed and sent to your referring physician within 24-48 hours, along with recommendations for next steps.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and electromyography to give a complete picture of your condition. The testing can identify carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, and nerve damage from injury or disease.
We serve patients throughout Staten Island who need diagnostic testing for unexplained numbness, muscle weakness, chronic pain, or suspected nerve compression. Common referral reasons include sciatica evaluation, workplace injury assessment, and diabetic neuropathy screening.
Each test is customized based on your specific symptoms and your doctor’s concerns. You’ll receive detailed results that help determine whether physical therapy, medication, surgery, or other treatments might be most effective.
