Basi Vertebral Nerve Ablations (BVNA)
Chronic back pain can be a life-altering condition that affects your daily life. At CPSS, we specialize in advanced pain relief therapies designed to help you regain your comfort and well-being

What is Basi Vertebral Nerve Ablations (BVNA)?

Basi Vertebral Nerve Ablations (BVNA) is a cutting-edge procedure designed to target and alleviate specific types of back pain by ablating the basi vertebral nerves, which transmit pain signals. This minimally invasive technique offers lasting relief for many patients.

Why Consider this Treatment?

If you’ve been struggling with persistent back pain that hasn’t responded well to traditional treatments and you’re seeking a long-term solution, BVNA may be the ideal choice.

 

This procedure is particularly beneficial for patients experiencing:

  • Chronic back pain due to specific conditions or injuries.
  • Pain that hasn’t improved with conservative treatments.
  • A desire for a minimally invasive approach to lasting pain relief.

What to expect during the Procedure?

At CPSS, your comfort and care are our top priorities.

 

Here’s what you can expect during the BVNA procedure:

  1. Consultation: A comprehensive assessment to understand your specific pain and medical history.
  2. Preparation: You’ll be comfortably positioned, and the area around your back will be sterilized.
  3. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia minimizes discomfort at the treatment site.
  4. Procedure: Specialized tools are used to ablate the basi vertebral nerves, interrupting pain signal transmission.
  5. Completion: The entire process is swift, often taking less than an hour.

Recovery times may vary, but many patients experience lasting pain relief.

Post-Procedure Care and Recovery

While some patients note immediate improvement, full pain relief typically develops over the course of several weeks. Some soreness at the procedure site is normal. Our team will offer detailed aftercare guidance and support your recovery every step of the way.

Safety, Risks, and Complications

We prioritize your health above all else. BVNA is a safe, minimally invasive procedure, and we ensure you’re aware of the infrequent risks involved, including minor soreness or bruising at the treatment site. Throughout your journey, we’re committed to open, honest communication and personalized care.
