Apex Neurosurgery & Spine: Leading the Way in Pain Relief with Radiofrequency Ablation

At Apex Neurosurgery & Spine, our expertise in Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) has transformed the lives of countless patients. RFA is a groundbreaking, non-surgical method that offers extended relief from chronic pain. Ideal for individuals battling persistent lower back and neck pain due to arthritis-induced joint degeneration, this technique utilizes explicitly radiofrequency waves to target and disable pain-transmitting nerve fibers. By halting these signals before they reach the brain, patients experience profound pain alleviation.

How Does RFA Benefit You?

  • Targeted Treatment: RFA precisely interrupts pain transmission.
  • Non-Invasive: Avoids the complications of surgical procedures.
  • Long-Term Relief: Offers a more permanent solution to chronic pain.

Radiofrequency Ablation: Alleviate and Restore

Radiofrequency ablation focuses on the precise application of RF energy to pain-transmitting nerves. By targeting these nerves, we can effectively reduce pain emanating from various regions of the body, including:

  • Buttocks
  • Hips
  • Legs
  • Shoulders
  • Head
  • Groin (addressed by lumbar facet joint injections)

Understanding Radiofrequency Ablation

Nerves transmit pain signals from different parts of the body to the brain. When certain nerves consistently relay pain due to conditions like arthritis or other degenerations, RFA can be used to disrupt these pathways, providing relief. Factors like age, weight, athletic activities, or incorrect postures can intensify the pain, making RFA an invaluable solution.

Your Radiofrequency Ablation Experience:

  • Preparation: Guidelines on food, beverage, and medication intake will be given prior to your appointment.
  • Procedure: After administering sedation and sterilizing the target area, we apply a numbing solution. Our state-of-the-art equipment ensures utmost precision during the RFA.
  • Duration: The procedure typically lasts under 30 minutes.
  • Post-Procedure: Engaging in strenuous activities is not recommended for a few days post-RFA. However, general movement is encouraged.
