Radiofrequency rhizotomy is a therapeutic procedure that targets pain arising from degenerative facet joints within the spine. The procedure destroys nerves using highly localized heat generated with radiofrequency. By destroying these nerves, the communication link that signals pain from the spine to the brain can be broken.
