Our Nerve Testing Services
Nerve Conduction Study
Checks how quickly and effectively your nerves send electrical signals to help identify any nerve issues.
Repetitive Nerve Stimulation
A specialised form of nerve testing that looks at how well neuromuscular junctions are functioning.
Electromyography
Done by a neurologist, this test measures the response and electrical activity of a muscle that is controlled by a nerve cell.
