Superior PT | The Difference Between Back Pain and Sciatica

FEATURED TREATMENT: EMG/NCS

HEALTHY RECIPE: CUCUMBER, TOMATO & AVOCADO SALAD

EMG (Electromyography/Nerve Conduction Study) measures the electrical activity of muscles at rest during contraction. Nerves control the muscles in the body by electrical signals (impulses), and these impulses cause muscles to react in specific ways. If you’re suffering from back pain, neck pain, numbness or tingling in the hands or feet, weakness in legs, arms, or hands, ask your physician if EMG/NCS testing is right for you. “I WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK TO THEM WHEN NEEDED!” “I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone! This was my second round of PT ( first time with them), I had torn all my ligaments in my ankle, and knowing that surgery was in the near future, they got me back up and going to the point that I may not have to have surgery now! Not only are all of them super friendly, but they make you feel at home! They made PT fun! I will definitely go back to them when needed!” — Rachel B. PATIENT SUCCESS:
