Radiofrequency ablation is a procedure that can provide longer lasting pain relief for patients who have received pain relief from a medial branch block or nerve block. During this procedure, an electrode is utilized to create a lesion over the targeted nerve. The lesion interrupts the pain signal generated by the nerve, thus providing pain relief. A radiofrequency ablation can provide up to 18-24 months of pain relief.
NextPain Care’s use of radiofrequency ablation is part of our approach to advanced pain management techniques. This treatment aims to provide patients with sustained pain relief, contributing to an improved quality of life and increased function.
