Assessing Muscle and Nerve Health

Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity of muscles. At New SoCal Medical Group, we use EMG to diagnose a variety of neuromuscular conditions, including:

• Muscle Disorders
• Nerve damage
• Spinal cord injuries
• Peripheral neuropathy

The EMG procedure typically involves:

• Inserting small needles into the muscles
• Measuring electrical activity as the muscle contracts and relaxes
