TREATMENT OVERVIEW

What is Radiofrequency Neuroablation?

If you’ve been living with chronic back, neck, or joint pain, you know how draining it can be to get through even simple daily activities. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a treatment designed to give you lasting relief without surgery. Using a thin needle and gentle heat, we “quiet down” the nerves that keep sending constant pain signals to your brain.

At Mountain View Headache & Spine Institute, we perform this procedure every week for patients across Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale, and Peoria, Arizona, helping them return to work, family life, and the activities they thought pain had taken away for good.

How Does An RFA Work?



You’ll get settled in one of our outpatient suites, no hospital stay required.



We numb the skin with a local anesthetic so you’re comfortable.



Using live X-ray guidance, we place a small needle next to the nerve that’s causing your pain.

A quick test ensures we’ve found the right spot.

Then, we apply radiofrequency energy for about a minute, which gently interrupts the nerve’s ability to carry pain signals.

Are There Side Affects Of An RFA?

Like any procedure, RFA has a few risks, but they’re rare. Some patients notice soreness or bruising at the treatment site for a few days. Occasionally there’s mild tingling or numbness, but serious complications are uncommon. Our team walks you through everything ahead of time so there are no surprises.
