Radiofrequency therapy for pain relief

Radiofrequency is a minimally invasive procedure that uses controlled energy to reduce pain originating from joints or nerves. There are two modalities: Pulsed Radiofrequency (PRF), which does not damage the nerve and helps modulate inflammation, indicated for neuropathic pain, sciatica, neuralgias, and migraines; and Thermal Radiofrequency (TRF), which applies heat to temporarily deactivate the nerve responsible for pain, useful for facet joint pain, sacroiliac pain, and cervicogenic headaches. Both procedures are performed in a safe environment, guided by X-rays or ultrasound, ensuring greater precision, safety, and reduced risks.
