What is Cryoneurolysis?

Cryoneurolysis is a safe, drug-free treatment that uses carefully controlled cold therapy to temporarily stop nerves from sending pain signals. It provides reliefwithout the need for ongoing medications or surgery.

How Does It Work?

• Dr. Norton uses image guidance to precisely locate the target nerve

• This safely “freezes” the nerve’s ability to send pain signals, while leaving nearby tissues unharmed
