Genicular Neurotomy (aka ablation) is a brand new, innovative option for treating knee pain without surgery. This highly advanced procedure is on the absolute cutting edge of medicine. By selectively applying a sophisticated type of radio wave to the nerves surrounding the knee (the genicular nerves), one can effectively relieve pain in the knee from any number of causes.
Indications
Perhaps the greatest advantage of genicular neurotomy is that the entire procedure is performed outside the knee capsule and joint itself. This is what allows it to succeed where other procedures like cortisone injections, hyaluronic acid injections, and even surgery fail.
