Radio Frequency Ablation

Long-Lasting Pain Relief for Spine, Joint & Knee Arthritis

Radio Frequency Ablation is a procedure that uses controlled radiofrequency energy to block pain signals by targeting specific sensory nerves responsible for transmitting pain to the brain.

By interrupting these pain pathways, RFA reduces chronic pain while preserving normal muscle function and movement.

Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) is an advanced, minimally invasive pain management procedure designed to provide long-term relief from chronic joint and spine pain. At Proact Ortho & Pain Clinic, RFA is used to treat pain originating from the facet joints, sacroiliac joints, and knee genicular nerves, especially in degenerative and arthritic conditions.

What to Expect During the Procedure

  • Performed on an outpatient basis

  • Pain source confirmed through clinical assessment

  • Target nerves identified precisely

  • Radiofrequency energy applied under sterile conditions

  • Procedure usually takes a short time

  • Patients return home the same day

Most patients experience gradual and sustained pain relief.

Types of Radio Frequency Ablation Treatments

Facet joints are small joints in the spine that can cause chronic neck or back pain due to arthritis or degeneration. RFA helps relieve pain by targeting the facet joint sensory nerves.

Used for:

  • Chronic neck pain

  • Chronic back pain

  • Facet joint arthritis

When sacroiliac joint pain becomes chronic or recurrent, RFA offers sustained pain relief by blocking sensory nerves supplying the SI joint.

Used for:

  • Chronic sacroiliac joint pain

  • Lower back and pelvic pain

  • Degenerative SI joint conditions
