What Is Radiofrequency Nerve Ablation?
Radiofrequency nerve ablation uses an electric current to heat the nerves, preventing pain signals from traveling back to the brain. Radiofrequency nerve ablation is an effective solution for those suffering from chronic pain when other less invasive options are not successful. Dr. John Lee is proud to offer this therapy for men and women in the Chino, CA area who suffer from chronic pain, especially in the lower back and neck. If you have tried other pain management techniques and have not found relief, please contact our office to schedule a consultation to see if radiofrequency nerve ablation can help you get the relief you deserve.
How Does Radiofrequency Nerve Ablation Work?
We will begin your radiofrequency nerve ablation by inserting a needle into the treatment area using a fluoroscope x-ray. A microelectrode will be inserted through the needle and will heat the nerve tissue using radiofrequency current. The heat will burn the nerve to eliminate pain signals from traveling to the brain. Multiple nerves can be addressed during the procedure. Results can last anywhere from several months to two years. The treatment can be repeated as needed, and follow-up appointments may be required to adjust your treatment plan.

- Up to two years of relief from chronic pain

Wave Pain Specialists Reviews
Dr. John Lee was professional, friendly and explained the procedure. He put me at ease during the procedure and it was a breeze. The ESI has helped my pain reduce tremendously. I would recommend Wave Pain to anyone needing relief.
Thanks to these doctors that provide medicine that WORKS. I used them for ketamine which has made a huge difference for my life. Huge!
Dr. Lee is a lifesaver! I sustained 3 herniated disc's about 18 years ago from an auto accident where I was rear-ended by a drunk driver. Since that time, my pain level began to increase to an 8 or 9 (out of 10) on a daily basis. Living with pain is no joke and affected me physically and mentally. I tried physical therapy, over the counter meds, and holistic approaches that provided minimal relief for brief periods of time. After visiting 3 different doctors, all recommended surgery. A family member found Dr. Lee and in my first visit, he suggested epidural shots to help relieve my pain. He was thorough in his explanations, allowed me to watch the procedure, and educated me throughout the whole process. After my first shot, I felt a level 10 pain for about 3 days, and then it was gone! I was/have been pain free for over 6 months. I can exercise, concentrate, sleep, and feel happy again! He has helped me so much and I appreciate that we found an alternative that has been lifesaving compared to having invasive surgery. Thank you Dr. Lee. No words can capture the relief that you have provided me with!!
Depressive here. Wave Pain Specialist greatly improved my life! I’ve suffered from mild depression my whole life. About 4 years ago it went major. I couldn’t concentrate, had severe brain fog, and constant suicidal thoughts. I couldn’t snap out of it. I tried a lot of different medications, TMS Therapy, talk therapy, oral Ketamine at home therapy; nothing helped. The first session I had with Dr. Lee finally brought me back to myself. The suicidal thoughts and brain fog lifted! I was alive again! I’ve had several sessions since and the relief has remained. I’ve got my life again! Thank you, Dr. Lees!
