Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar, Joints Radiofrequency Ablation
In cases where a Medial Branch Block has confirmed that your pain originates from a facet joint, a radiofrequency neurotomy can be considered for longer term pain relief. A radiofrequency neurotomy is a type of injection procedure in which a heat lesion is created on the nerve that transmits the pain signal to the brain. The goal of a radiofrequency neurotomy is to interrupt the pain signal to the brain, while preserving other functions, such as normal sensation and muscle strength.
