What is done in lumbar radiofrequency? My mother was at her physiotherapist 3 days ago. He suggested her to try with lumbar radiofrequency because she suffers bad back pain. Is it invasive procedure? Is it effective in reducing pain?

This procedure is done to reduce or even stop pain in back. Procedure is done with local anesthetic and is minimally invasive. Nerves that serve facet joints that are responsible for pain sensation are cut by slight electric current. This procedure is also called Rf rhizotomy. Hope that helped.
