Ablation (RFA)<\/h2>\n<p>Chronic neck or back pain often comes from the small facet joints that connect each vertebra, and those joints are supplied by nerves called medial branch nerves. When steroid injections have provided relief but it fades quickly, or you\u2019re looking for a longer-lasting option before considering surgery, Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is often the next step.<\/p>\n<h3>How It Works<\/h3>\n<p>Using targeted radiofrequency energy, Dr. Nivens creates a small, controlled heat lesion, essentially a scar, around the medial branch nerves that supply the affected facet joints. That scar interrupts the nerve\u2019s ability to send pain signals from the joint to the brain, which can significantly reduce pain for 6 to 12 months, and sometimes longer.<\/p>\n<h3>Who This Can Help<\/h3>\n<p>RFA is commonly used for patients who:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Have chronic neck or back pain from facet joint arthritis or degeneration<\/li>\n<li>Got good relief from steroid injections, but it didn\u2019t last<\/li>\n<li>Want to explore longer-lasting, non-surgical pain relief before considering surgery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Hear From Dr. Nivens<\/h3>\n<p>Watch below as Dr. Charles Nivens shares more about this treatment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-ms7yg50u-45d219d07c7fddcf599c6741b3fa82ca av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_three_fifth  first no_margin flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-5rr42-b40cc45756f77006b3df587a407de2fe\">\n.flex_column.av-5rr42-b40cc45756f77006b3df587a407de2fe{\nborder-radius:15px 15px 15px 15px;\npadding:20px 20px 20px 20px;\nbackground-color:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-5rr42-b40cc45756f77006b3df587a407de2fe av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth  homeshadow no_margin flex_column_div av-animated-generic zoom-in  column-top-margin'     ><div  class='avia-video av-ms7yggzk-784ba8fd526efcbb90d1fe04a4dced92 avia-video-16-9 av-no-preview-image avia-video-load-always av-lazyload-immediate av-lazyload-video-embed'  itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ju1DJ0eEinQ'><script type='text\/html' class='av-video-tmpl'><div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Radiofrequency Ablation at Nivens Spine Medicine\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ju1DJ0eEinQ?feature=oembed&autoplay=0&loop=0&controls=1&mute=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/script><div class='av-click-to-play-overlay'><div class=\"avia_playpause_icon\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-5csj6-2db3e21331e40b974816027bf32bfa15 av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_three_fifth  el_before_av_one_full  no_margin flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-4kcrm-6dbd7055e6d24e8df4546028dfd73b1a av_one_full  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-ms7ym0rn-06a17529c02c44aa8b686999b72cf641 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2>Genicular Nerve Block to the Knee<\/h2>\n<p>Chronic knee pain doesn\u2019t always have a straightforward surgical fix. Some patients aren\u2019t good candidates for knee replacement due to age, other health conditions, or the extent of joint damage. Others have already had a knee replacement and are still dealing with pain that hasn\u2019t resolved. For both groups, a genicular nerve block offers a non-surgical option worth exploring before considering anything more invasive.<\/p>\n<h3>How It Works<\/h3>\n<p>The knee joint gets its sensation from a small group of nerves called the genicular nerves. During the procedure, Dr. Nivens uses image guidance to precisely place a local anesthetic, sometimes combined with a steroid, near these nerves. By blocking the signal these nerves send to the brain, the goal is to reduce or resolve the pain coming from the joint itself.<\/p>\n<h3>Who This Can Help<\/h3>\n<p>This procedure is commonly used for patients with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Chronic knee pain from arthritis who aren\u2019t candidates for knee replacement<\/li>\n<li>Ongoing pain after a total knee replacement that hasn\u2019t improved with other treatments<\/li>\n<li>Knee pain where conservative options, like physical therapy or anti-inflammatories, haven\u2019t provided lasting relief<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3'  class='avia-section av-dasy-8974a400268533ad1e59cdcef56e0b4b main_color avia-section-large avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-30'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-bn5q-2128ce49ea9789a716fbf7e42c4de3f7\">\n.flex_column.av-bn5q-2128ce49ea9789a716fbf7e42c4de3f7{\nborder-radius:15px 15px 15px 15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-bn5q-2128ce49ea9789a716fbf7e42c4de3f7 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-13  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  first flex_column_div av-animated-generic bottom-to-top  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa{\npadding-bottom:10px;\ncolor:#1f2c3d;\nfont-size:50px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:50px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa .special-heading-inner-border{\nborder-color:#1f2c3d;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-2rz0q-46b0f7018c85a6669e20ccd4f8762efa av-special-heading-h2 custom-color-heading blockquote modern-quote modern-centered  avia-builder-el-14  el_before_av_testimonials  avia-builder-el-first  av-inherit-size'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >What Our Clients Are Saying<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-testimonial-wrapper av-1y8f2-1d8a897d8df8de0e6063dce6e9c99b64 avia-grid-testimonials avia-grid-2-testimonials avia_animate_when_almost_visible av-minimal-grid-style av-boxed-grid-style' >\n<section class=\"avia-testimonial-row\"><div class='avia-testimonial av-1d5me-25849af4b2ff43cc713766f439316e97 avia-testimonial-row-1 avia-first-testimonial flex_column no_margin av_one_half'><div class='avia-testimonial_inner'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia-testimonial-content '><div class='avia-testimonial-markup-entry-content'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>This is an amazing office I had gotten the runaround from my primary for weeks about the pain.
