Cooled Radiofrequency Ablation – Knee

A new treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee is now available at Bronson. Cooled radiofrequency ablation is a procedure that blocks nerves in the knee from sending pain signals. It is not surgery but is done at the hospital in an operating room.

Rehabilitation After Ablation of the Knee

After you have the ablation procedure on your knee, a guided exercise program could aid in pain reduction. It can also help restore knee mobility and strength.
