When a nerve is irritated, it can feel like a fire alarm going off in your body that nobody knows how to turn off. If standard treatments have not worked, Sage Spine Pain and Nerve Center has a smart, gentle solution. Dr. Andrew M. Clary, DO, provides Pulsed Radiofrequency Ablation
(PRF) to help hit the “reset button” on your pain.
You might have heard of standard Radiofrequency Ablation, which uses heat to quiet a nerve. Pulsed Radiofrequency (PRF) is a little different!
Instead of using constant heat, PRF uses short, quick pulses of energy (radio waves). These fast pulses “stun” the nerve without causing any heat damage to it. It changes the way the nerve acts, stopping it from sending those annoying pain signals to your brain, while leaving the nerve
completely whole.
PRF is a fantastic, safe choice for treating many types of pain, including:
● Stubborn back and neck pain
● Joint pain (like in the shoulders or knees)
● Headaches that start from the neck
● Painful, sensitive nerves in the arms or legs
This is a quick, outpatient procedure that takes very little time:
● Step 1 – Finding the Target: Using special imaging cameras, we carefully find the exact nerve causing your trouble.
● Step 2 – Getting Comfortable: We numb the area so you feel relaxed and comfortable.
● Step 3 – Sending the Pulses: A special, tiny needle delivers the fast, cool pulses of energy right to the nerve.
● Step 4 – Hitting Reset: The nerve is stunned, the pain signals stop, and you can start feeling better!
Patients love this treatment because it provides:
● Gentle Relief: It does not burn or destroy the nerve.
● Fast Recovery: You can usually go home the exact same day.
● Long-Lasting Results: Enjoy months of pain-free living.
● Less Medicine: Reduce your need for daily pain pills.
