At Mount Elizabeth Hospital, Rhizotomy is performed using precise nerve-targeting techniques and individualized treatment planning. Established in 1979, the JCI accredited hospital in Singapore, Singapore has 345 beds and provides comprehensive neurosurgical and rehabilitation services.

Rhizotomy may be recommended when abnormal nerve signals contribute to persistent pain, muscle tightness, or involuntary muscle activity that has not responded adequately to conservative treatment. During the procedure, the specialist identifies the targeted nerve fibers and interrupts their ability to transmit specific signals. Depending on the indication, rhizotomy may be performed using surgical techniques or minimally invasive approaches such as radiofrequency treatment. Careful assessment is required to balance symptom relief with preservation of important nerve function.
