Are you suffering from chronic back, neck, or joint pain? Having trouble finding long-term pain relief? Radio Frequency Nerve Ablations (RFA) can provide the relief you’re looking for. At NESS, we’re helping patients with chronic back and neck pain alleviate their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

What Is Radiofrequency Nerve Ablation?

Radiofrequency ablation is a procedure that is used to reduce pain. The procedure uses radio waves to heat up a small area of nerve tissue, decreasing pain signals from that specific area. This treatment can be used to help patients with chronic low-back and neck pain, and pain related to degeneration of joints from arthritis.

What Can I Expect After Radiofrequency Nerve Ablation?

Pain relief duration varies based on the location and cause of the pain. Relief can last anywhere from 6-12 months, and in some cases, it can last years. The main side effects you may experience include discomfort such as swelling and bruising at the treatment site. These side effects normally go away within a few days. Overall, our patients will experience an improved quality of life and reduced pain.
