When these endplates become damaged or inflamed, they activate the basivertebral nerve, which sends persistent pain signals to the brain. This type of pain is typically felt in the center of the low back and does not radiate down the legs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How does the Intracept\u00ae Procedure work?<\/h3>\n<p><span>The Intracept\u00ae Procedure targets the basivertebral nerve, which is responsible for transmitting vertebrogenic pain signals. During the procedure, a specialized probe is placed into the vertebral body and uses radiofrequency energy to interrupt the nerve\u2019s ability to send pain signals. Once treated, the nerve does not regenerate, allowing for long\u2011lasting relief.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Who is a good candidate for Intracept\u00ae?<\/h3>\n<p><span>Ideal candidates are patients with chronic low back pain lasting six months or longer, who have not improved with conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medications, or injections. MRI findings must show Modic Type 1 or Type 2 changes, which indicate inflammation or degeneration of the vertebral endplates. These imaging markers are essential for confirming vertebrogenic pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How long does pain relief from Intracept\u00ae last?<\/h3>\n<p><span>Clinical studies show that patients experience significant and sustained pain relief for years following the procedure. Because the basivertebral nerve does not regenerate, the results are long\u2011lasting, and many patients report improved function, reduced pain levels, and a better quality of life long after treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What is the recovery like after the Intracept\u00ae Procedure?<\/h3>\n<p><span>Recovery is typically quick, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days. Some may experience temporary soreness at the treatment site, but this usually resolves quickly. There are no implants, no hardware left behind, and no long\u2011term activity restrictions, making it a low\u2011impact option for chronic low back pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#0C71C3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Related Services<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul role=\"list\">\n<li>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/ridgemediallc.dev\/renew\/pain-management-services-renew-pain\/intracept\">Intracept Procedure<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/ridgemediallc.dev\/renew\/pain-management-services-renew-pain\/spinal-cord-stimulation-and-dorsal-root-ganglion-stimulation\">Spinal Cord Stimulation &amp; DRG Stimulation<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/ridgemediallc.dev\/renew\/pain-management-services-renew-pain\/platelet-rich-plasma-injections\">Platelet\u2011Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/ridgemediallc.dev\/renew\/pain-management-services-renew-pain\/intrathecal-pumps\">Intrathecal Pain Pumps<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/ridgemediallc.dev\/renew\/pain-management-services-renew-pain\/low-back-and-neck-pain\">Low Back &amp; Neck Pain Treatment<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;44px||19px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-28px|auto||auto||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#0C71C3&#8243; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Explore More Resources<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span>This section connects patients with additional educational content that supports the Intracept\u00ae Procedure and the broader topic of vertebrogenic pain.
