At SouthPoint Ortho and Spine, we offer radiofrequency ablation (RFA) as a safe, effective option for managing chronic pain. RFA is a minimally invasive procedure that works by gently heating targeted nerve tissue, interrupting pain signals before they reach the brain. Using advanced imaging, our specialists guide a thin needle to the precise nerve area, ensuring accuracy and comfort. This treatment is commonly used for back, neck, joint, and arthritis-related pain, helping patients find lasting relief without surgery.
Most RFA procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, so patients return home the same day. Many begin experiencing relief within days, and the benefits often last six months to over a year. If pain returns, the treatment can be safely repeated.
Benefits of Radiofrequency Ablation at SouthPoint Ortho and Spine:
