Advanced electromyography testing to diagnose muscle weakness, numbness, and unexplained nerve symptoms with precision.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for weeks or months. Your primary care doctor suspects a nerve issue, but you need definitive answers. EMG testing gives you exactly that – clear, objective data about how your nerves and muscles are functioning.
When the test is complete, you’ll know whether your symptoms stem from nerve damage, muscle disorders, or conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or sciatica. No more guessing. No more wondering if it’s serious or if it will get worse.
With accurate results in hand, you and your doctor can create a targeted treatment plan. Whether that means physical therapy, medication, or other interventions, you’ll move forward with confidence knowing exactly what you’re treating.

Located conveniently in Wood-Ridge, our facility serves patients throughout Bergen County who need accurate diagnostic testing without traveling to Manhattan.
Your EMG test typically combines two parts: nerve conduction studies and electromyography. The nerve conduction study comes first, where small electrodes are placed on your skin to measure how quickly electrical signals travel through your nerves. You’ll feel mild electrical pulses, but most patients tolerate this easily.
Next is the electromyography portion, where a thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. The needle detects whether your muscles are responding normally to nerve signals. While this sounds uncomfortable, the needles are very thin and most patients describe it as similar to acupuncture.
The entire process usually takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles need testing. Results are available immediately, and your doctor will explain what the findings mean for your specific situation. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your diagnosis and recommended next steps.
