If you can do a noninvasive procedure versus an invasive procedure, the attending physician, if any good at all, will always go with the noninvasive technique. If ever a noninvasive procedure can be done, it will always out weigh the invasive procedure.
Are there non-invasive procedures that are considered treatment instead of only diagnostic in nature
no
Yes, there are noninvasive prcedures that are considered treatment, such as procedures to treat varicose veins. There are also treatments that are considered minimally invasive.
Invasive involves cutting the body open, invading it. Non-invasive uses existing bodily cavities to reach areas if they can be operated on that way. In the future, nanosurgery using tiny devices and tiny robots will make non-invasive surgery more readily possible.

Non-invasive cardiologists provide expertise in the detection and treatment of heart disease. Non-invasive cardiology involves tests to evaluate and diagnose disorders of the heart. A person with a history of heart disease, chest pain with unknown cause or valvular heart disease may be referred for non-invasive evaluation [From: http://www.catholicmedicalcenter.org/Programs/Non-Invasive-Cardiology.aspx] Invasive cardiology is a special aspect of cardiology that uses invasive procedures to treat heart disease. These procedures generally require insertion of instruments through the skin and into the body to treat a problem - thus the term "invasive." Many of the procedures done in this exciting field can be lifesaving. [From: http://www.personalmd.com/news/invasivecardio_81900.shtml] Hope this helps. There is plentiful more information in the links provided if you plan to deeply anylize these terms.
X-Rays, CTs, MRI, FMRI, ultrasound scans, EEG, and EKG would be considered non-invasive imaging and studies as they don't require surgery, or any invasive procedures. Some procedures such as PET Scans or Angiography would be minimally invasive as contrasts and dyes are injected. A colonoscopy might also fall into that category.

No. It is a non-invasive method

The elements of this approach include treating the underlying cause of pain, pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies, and some invasive (surgical) procedures.
Invasive means that this animal or plant is invading Australia e.g it could be wrecking fences. Non invasive means its doing no harm at all e.g the cow is non invasive becaause its not doing anything wrong, its actally helping us by giving us milk!
