It begins with a diagnosis, assessment, and preparation phase, involving tests to identify the target areas for the treatment. A needle is then inserted into the affected nerve site, aided by imaging techniques, and local anesthesia is administered. Radio waves are activated at the precise location, generating heat to disable the targeted nerve. After the procedure, temporary numbness or weakness at the injection site may occur, but in the days following RFA, patients typically experience a noticeable reduction in their pain.
