What is the Sacroiliac Joint?

The sacroiliac (SI) joints are located where the sacrum meets the ilium of the pelvis. These joints play an essential role in providing stability and supporting body weight during movement.

When these joints become inflamed or injured, they can cause chronic pain in the lower back, buttocks, or legs. SI joint injections and cooled RFA help relieve this pain by targeting inflammation and nerve signals.
