Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) at Aesthetics & Pain
When everyday pain becomes your new normal, it’s time for a better solution — one that doesn’t just mask the symptoms, but turns them off at the source. At Aesthetics & Pain, we offer Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) to help you get real, lasting relief without surgery or heavy medication. If you’ve been living with chronic spine or joint pain that hasn’t improved with physical therapy or injections, RFA might be the next step toward getting your life back.
What is Radiofrequency Ablation?
RFA is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency energy (a type of heat) to gently “turn off” specific pain-causing nerves. These nerves send pain signals from the joints in your spine or body to your brain. By interrupting those signals, RFA can give you months – even a year or more – of pain relief.
It’s commonly used for:
- Lower back (lumbar) pain
- Neck (cervical) pain
- Mid-back (thoracic) pain
- Sacroiliac (SI) joint pain
- Facet joint arthritis
- Pain from degenerative spine conditions
How Does It Work?
Benefits of Radiofrequency Ablation
- Long-lasting relief without daily pills
- Treats the root cause of chronic joint and spinal pain
- Minimally invasive with no incisions
- No sedation or hospital stay required
- Helps you move more freely and return to daily activities
- May help delay or avoid surgery
Who is RFA For?
- RFA is ideal for people who:
- Have chronic neck or back pain, especially from arthritis or disc wear
- Didn’t get lasting relief from steroid injections or physical therapy
- Want to avoid long-term pain medication or surgery
- Had short-term relief from a nerve block injection
- We’ll help determine if you’re a good fit with diagnostic testing and a full evaluation.
Is It Safe?
-
Yes. RFA is a proven, low-risk procedure performed in-office under sterile conditions. We use imaging guidance for accuracy, and the technique has been widely used for over two decades to treat chronic pain safely.
Side effects are usually mild and may include soreness or temporary numbness at the site. Serious complications are rare.
