Cervical Facet Radiofrequency Neurotomy
Cervical facet radiofrequency neurotomy is a procedure used to treat chronic neck pain originating from the facet joints of the cervical spine. During the procedure, a specialized needle is used to deliver heat to the nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals from the facet joints. This disrupts the nerve's ability to transmit pain signals, providing significant and long-lasting relief for patients with cervical facet joint pain.
