was wondering about this treatment, have been advised by the vet to have this done and some x-rays, can anyone tell me why they do this??

It's not a treatment, it's a diagnosis tool.
In short you can block out specific areas of nerves in the limb and look to see if the lameness eases. If it does then that means the pain can be pinpointed to that location
