Comprehensive Musculoskeletal Care

Electromyography (EMG) & Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS)

In-office nerve and muscle testing that pinpoints the source of numbness and weakness.

EMG and nerve conduction studies measure how well nerves transmit signals and how muscles respond, providing objective information that imaging alone cannot give.

Testing is performed in our office by physicians trained in electrodiagnostic medicine, and results directly guide treatment decisions.
