The present invention provides a electromyographic (EMG) device for the diagnosis and treatment of muscle injuries associated with pain, stiffness, and movement disorders. The device is configured for diagnosing chronic and recurrent muscle pain and includes two active EMG electrodes and an EMG reference electrode which when attached to the subject patient can measure and display electromyographic signals. The device includes an integrated stimulator can be used for treating chronic and recurrent muscle pain, by evoking stimulation, or E-stim, location. The device includes a visual display system for displaying raw and processed EMG on an easy to read LCD display, allowing visual analysis of the level of spontaneous EMG activity in trigger points and adjacent muscle tissue. The device is configured to provide for propagation of audio feedback based on the raw EMG. This provides an auditory analysis of the level of spontaneous EMG activity in trigger points and adjacent muscle tissue.
