Sacroiliac Joint Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)

Sacroiliac Joint RFA

If diagnostic injections provide temporary relief, sacroiliac joint radiofrequency ablation (RFA) may offer longer-lasting pain control.

Radiofrequency ablation works by targeting the small nerves that transmit pain signals from the SI joint.

Benefits of SI Joint RFA

  • Uses controlled heat to disrupt pain-transmitting nerves
  • Reduces chronic sacroiliac joint pain
  • Provides relief that may last 6–18 months or longer
  • Helps patients avoid more invasive surgical procedures

SI joint RFA is often recommended for patients with chronic inflammation or degenerative SI joint conditions who have responded positively to diagnostic injections.
