COOLIEF: Cooled Radiofrequency Treatment
What Is It:
COOLIEF cooled radiofrequency is a minimally invasive treatment option targeting nerves that are causing pain.
How Does it Work:
This advanced procedure uses cooled radiofrequency energy to safely target the sensory nerves causing pain. RF energy heats and cools the tissue at the site of pain. COOLIEF circulates water through the device while heating nervous tissue to create a treatment area that is larger than conventional RF treatments. This combination targets the pain-causing nerves without excessive heating, leading to pain relief.
Why COOLIEF Cooled Radiogrequency:
Studies have been shown to provide chronic back pain patients with up to 24 months of pain relief, improved physical function, and reduced drug utilization.
