EMG Testing Process Orange Bowl

Here's What Happens During Your EMG Test

First, we’ll discuss your symptoms and medical history to understand exactly what we need to test. This helps us focus the EMG testing on the areas most likely causing your problems.

During the nerve conduction study portion, we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how well your nerves transmit signals. For the electromyography part, we use a thin needle electrode to record electrical activity in your muscles.

The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on how many areas we’re testing. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what they mean and recommendations for next steps.

Comprehensive EMG Diagnostic Testing

Complete Nerve and Muscle Function Assessment

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and electromyography to give us a complete picture of your neurological function. We test for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, and peripheral neuropathy.

Orange Bowl residents choose us because we combine advanced diagnostic technology with experienced interpretation. We’ve seen thousands of cases and know how to identify subtle patterns that less experienced facilities might miss.

You’ll receive detailed results explaining nerve conduction velocities, muscle response patterns, and what these findings mean for your specific symptoms. We also coordinate with your referring physician or help you understand treatment options based on your diagnosis.

Most patients describe EMG testing as uncomfortable rather than painful. The nerve conduction study feels like small electrical pulses or static shocks. The needle electrode portion involves brief pinching sensations when the needle is inserted. The entire test typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on how many nerves and muscles we need to evaluate. Many patients are surprised that it’s less uncomfortable than they expected, and the valuable diagnostic information makes any temporary discomfort worthwhile.
EMG testing can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders like myositis, nerve damage from diabetes, and conditions affecting the spine’s nerve roots. We also use it to evaluate muscle weakness, unexplained numbness or tingling, and suspected nerve injuries from accidents or repetitive strain. The test helps distinguish between nerve problems, muscle problems, and conditions affecting the connection between nerves and muscles, which is crucial for developing the right treatment plan.
Avoid using lotions, oils, or creams on your skin the day of testing as they can interfere with electrode placement. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood-thinning medications, let us know beforehand but don’t stop them unless your doctor specifically instructs you to. You can eat normally and take your regular medications. Bring a list of your current symptoms and when they started, as this information helps us focus the testing on the most relevant areas.
Most insurance plans cover EMG testing when it’s medically necessary to diagnose nerve or muscle conditions. We accept most major insurance plans and will verify your coverage before your appointment. The test is typically covered when you have symptoms like unexplained numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, or suspected nerve damage. We’ll handle the insurance authorization process and let you know about any potential out-of-pocket costs upfront so there are no surprises.
You’ll receive your EMG results immediately after the test, along with an explanation of what the findings mean for your specific situation. We’ll discuss whether the results show normal nerve function, nerve damage, muscle problems, or other conditions. If abnormalities are found, we’ll explain the severity and discuss treatment options or refer you to the appropriate specialist. We also send a detailed report to your referring physician so your entire healthcare team stays informed about your diagnosis and recommended next steps.
Nerve conduction studies test how well electrical signals travel through your nerves by placing electrodes on your skin and measuring response times. EMG testing uses thin needle electrodes inserted into muscles to record electrical activity and detect muscle or nerve damage. Most comprehensive evaluations include both tests because they provide different but complementary information. Nerve conduction studies are better for detecting nerve damage, while EMG testing is more sensitive for muscle disorders and problems where nerves connect to muscles. Together, they give us a complete picture of your neurological function.
