Radio Frequency Ablation

anyone have this? Did it serve the purpose of stopping back pain or was it hoodoo science?

It's been two weeks since I had it performed on my lower back and I have no improvement in pain relief

Twice on her back. Once on her knee.
One on her back helped quite a bit for a few months. The knee worked better.
The other on her back did nothing.
We have heard that it is very technique sensitive.
