How COOLIEF RF Therapy Works

1. Imaging Guidance

Ultrasound or fluoroscopy is used to precisely identify pain-causing nerves.

2. Needle Placement

Special cooled RF needles are inserted near target nerves under local anesthesia.

3. Energy Delivery

Cooled RF energy is delivered, heating nerves gently without excessive heat spread.

4. Pain Signal Interruption

Treated nerves can no longer send pain signals, providing long-term relief.

No incision, no hospital admission, minimal downtime!
