What Is Radiofrequency Ablation?

Radiofrequency ablation, also known as rhizotomy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses targeted heat energy to interrupt pain signals at their source. By applying radiofrequency waves to specific nerve roots, RFA safely disables the sensory nerves responsible for chronic pain, particularly in the spine, without the need for surgery or long-term medication use.

At Remedy Health, Dr. Akash Bajaj performs radiofrequency ablation with exceptional precision, using image-guided techniques to pinpoint the exact pain-generating nerves. As the best radiofrequency ablation doctor in Los Angeles, Dr. Bajaj combines years of interventional expertise with a compassionate, results-driven approach. If you're dealing with chronic neck, back, or joint pain, RFA may be the safe, effective relief you’ve been looking for.

What to Expect From Radiofrequency Ablation in Los Angeles

Patient being evaluated by a specialist for radiofrequency ablation.

We begin with a comprehensive evaluation led by Dr. Bajaj, the best radiofrequency ablation specialist in Los Angeles. This includes a full review of your symptoms, history, and advanced imaging to identify the pain-generating joints. Most RFA procedures are preceded by diagnostic facet block injections to confirm the source of pain and ensure RFA is the appropriate next step.

before

Patient lying on x-ray table while doctor uses fluroscopic guidance to place a needle.

RFA is an outpatient procedure that typically takes under an hour. You’ll lie on an X-ray table as Dr. Bajaj uses fluoroscopic guidance to position a needle near the targeted nerve. A local anesthetic ensures your comfort. Once the needle is placed, a specialized electrode delivers a small, controlled dose of radiofrequency energy to deactivate the pain-signaling nerve.

during

Patient being discharged after RFA procedure with minimal soreness.

Most patients return home the same day. Mild soreness may occur at the injection site, but recovery is generally quick. Many patients experience significant pain relief within days to weeks, with results lasting six to 12 months, or longer in some cases. Repeat treatments may be recommended as needed.
