Why EMG Testing Could Be the Key to Solving Your Nerve and Muscle Pain

June 17, 20252 min read

Are you dealing with unexplained muscle weakness, tingling, or chronic nerve pain? You may have tried different treatments, medications, or physical therapy sessions without clear results. But have you ever considered EMG testing? At TheraMove & Diagnostics in Towson, we use Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) to uncover what’s really going on beneath the surface.

🔍 What is EMG and Why Is It Important?

Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity in your muscles. It shows how well your muscles respond to nerve signals, both at rest and during movement. This test is crucial for identifying conditions that affect the nerves or the muscles themselves.

It’s paired with Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS), which assess how fast and effectively electrical signals travel through your nerves. When combined, EMG and NCS give a complete picture of your neuromuscular health.


✅ Who Should Consider EMG Testing?

You might benefit from EMG testing if you’re experiencing:

  • Chronic tingling or numbness

  • Muscle weakness or spasms

  • Persistent nerve pain (like sciatica)

  • Burning or “pins and needles” sensation

  • Difficulty moving a limb or gripping objects

EMG/NCS is often recommended for diagnosing conditions such as:

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

  • Sciatica and Radiculopathy

  • Peripheral Neuropathy

  • Pinched Nerves or Nerve Entrapments

  • Herniated Discs

  • ALS, Muscular Dystrophy, or other neuromuscular disorders

If you’ve been frustrated by symptoms without a clear diagnosis, this test could give you the answers you’ve been looking for.
