Summary

This study is comparing two procedures that target nerves to relieve chronic low back pain. It tests a newer method that freezes nerves (iovera°) against the standard method that uses heat to burn them (radiofrequency ablation). Researchers will enroll 30 people and track their pain levels and quality of life for one year to see which treatment works better.
