Pulsed Radiofrequency to the Suprascapular Nerve

 

Shoulder pain secondary to osteoarthritic change or injury can be addressed by pulsed radiofrequency treatment to the suprascapular nerve that supplies the shoulder joint. It is a minimally invasive therapy that can be repeated to maximise the pain relieving benefits.
