Radio Frequency Ablation
This medical procedure is often referred to as a minimally invasive procedure; the physician utilizes heat emanating from radio waves to provide pain relief from painful facet joints in the lumbar area or the lower back.

Young ladies behind the counter were nice and professional. Dr. Khan was and is awesome. You felt he really cared which I have not felt in the 2 years I've been injured. Only reason I did not give it 5 stars was the hard time I had finding it.

Dr RYklin is amazing. He treats each patient as if you’re his only one. I’ve been seeing him for 7yrs due to a neck injury. He definitely finds what pain management meets your individual needs. The practitioners are amazing as well!!!!

Absolutely the best place I have been too...so many doctors and always just prescribed pain pills for over 10 years. There is hope, after starting injections I feel so much better. I know I'm in the right place.

Been with Kahn for over a year and wouldn't want to be anywhere else. He is not a pharmacy! He solves the issues instead of hiding them with tons of drugs. Have had multiple procedures to correct the problems.

I was nervous when I brought my mom into the office. They are clearly a very busy office, but the front staff was kind, and the doctor was very confident in a treatment plan. Overall my Mom was very pleased with her visit.

The team here are genuinely the most helpful providers I have ever had. I went through my worst lupus flare ever last year and mentally did not think I would make it. They truly saved me and made me feel like I could ask for help!

We are Dr. Ryklin's patients. He is an amazing pain management physician. All of the treatments that we receive work extraordinarily well. His entire staff, from front to back, are exceptional. Patient care is really the specialty here.
What is a Radio Frequency Ablation?
This injection procedure utilizes a steroid-anesthetic medication that helps reduce the swelling and inflammation of irritated spinal nerve roots. The goal of this procedure is to alleviate the pain experienced by the patient in the lower back and pain radiating from the lumbar area going to the legs. The procedure only takes a number of minutes to finish.
How is a Radio Frequency Ablation administered?
During an RFA procedure, a special device called a radiofrequency electrode or probe is inserted into the body near the target area. This probe generates an alternating current of radiofrequency energy, which creates heat. The heat generated by the probe is precisely directed to the specific tissue that needs to be treated.
Benefits of Radio Frequency Ablation
- Minimally Invasive: RFA is a minimally invasive procedure, meaning it typically requires only small incisions or needle punctures. This can lead to shorter recovery times compared to traditional surgery.
- Targeted Treatment: RFA allows for very precise targeting of specific tissues, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
- Outpatient Procedure: Many RFA procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis, reducing the need for hospitalization.
