Relieve Chronic Knee, Hip, or Shoulder Pain With COOLIEF®

Does joint pain stop you in your tracks? Even everyday activities like climbing stairs can be overwhelming when pain holds you back.

Quick Recovery With COOLIEF for Joint Pain

COOLIEF Cooled Radiofrequency Treatment offers lasting, non-surgical pain relief for people struggling with chronic knee, hip, or shoulder pain. This innovative option targets the nerves causing joint pain using cooled radiofrequency energy. It’s often a good treatment choice for patients with osteoarthritis pain.

Real Patients, Real Relief

Susan – I′m Telling Everyone

Now Moving with Ease in Glenwood, MN

My knees used to hurt all the time. It was hard to walk, sleep, and even move around. Now, I can sit, stand up easier, walk, and roll over in bed with ease. Three other people at my swim class have gotten it and agree, COOLIEF is an amazing way to relieve pain.

Brenda – Absolutely Thrilled With the Results

Shoulder Pain is Gone. Glenwood, MN

Everyday things like reaching into kitchen cupboards and upper body dressing were causing difficulty and pain in my shoulder. My results after the procedure were even better than expected! I would say the improvement is about 95%. With COOLIEF, the constant, low grade pain is completely gone and my full range of motion has been restored. I feel so fortunate to have quality, innovative health care in my hometown.

Helen – Felt Relief the Next Day

Delaying Knee Replacement. Glenwood, MN

My knee is bone-on-bone and needs to be replaced, but I want to put that off for as long as possible. When cortisone injections and gel injections were no longer effective, COOLIEF was successful in relieving the pain! I had no discomfort during the procedure, and felt relief by the next day. Dr. Mellgren and his nurse team were great.

Jim – Pain-Free and Back in the Game

Retired Carpenter From Starbuck, MN

When you go in with constant OA knee pain and you walk away with none—that’s pretty good! Nearly two years pain‑free, with full motion, so I can keep playing golf and softball in my 70s.

Rebecca – Active Life Restored

Doing Everything Again in her 50s From Lowry, MN

After the 45‑minute procedure for my bone-on-bone knee pain, I was pain‑free—lifting weights, hiking, doing everything I used to do. It’s amazing!

Hear more from Jim and Rebecca on how COOLIEF® joint pain treatment provided immediate relief, and gave them back the freedom to move, play, and live without chronic knee pain.

Long-Lasting Pain Relief

Research shows COOLIEF can provide significant pain reduction for most patients. In published data from Avanos, the company that developed COOLIEF, 65% of patients reported more than 50% pain relief lasting an average of 12.5 months, with some experiencing relief for nearly three years. Patients also reported improved mobility and less reliance on pain medication — making COOLIEF a proven, long-lasting option for chronic joint pain.

While COOLIEF was considered a new pain treatment in 2018, Dr. Gus Mellgren recognized its benefits early and began offering the procedure at Glenwood Medical Center in April of that year. Since then, he has helped numerous patients move beyond joint pain and get back to living fully.
