Individualized assessment Options explained Functional goals01 / UNDERSTAND
The disc, the nerve and your daily life.
A herniated disc is a localized displacement of disc material. Its location and relationship to nerves matter more than the word in the imaging report alone.
In the neck
A cervical problem may be associated with neck, shoulder or arm pain.
With or without radiating pain
The assessment looks for consistency between symptoms, the examination and available reports.
Useful distinctions
A herniation does not automatically explain every pain. The lumbar and cervical pages clarify the manifestations and questions specific to each region.
YOUR CONSULTATION IN TERREBONNE
A useful resource for Terrebonne.
Before choosing your Monday or Wednesday appointment in Terrebonne, gather your reports and the dates of care already tried. A concrete example from everyday life, such as driving or carrying a bag, helps explain what you want to regain.

02 / EXPLORE THE OPTIONS
Spinal decompression: a discussion based on your clinical profile.
The choice of care begins with your history, current signs and symptoms, and goals. A condition mentioned in a report does not dictate a treatment method.
- 1
Clarify your situation
A lumbar condition may be accompanied by pain in the back, buttock or leg. Existing examination results and previous care add to the discussion.
- 2
Discuss options and precautions
Non-surgical spinal decompression, adapted exercise, targeted osteopathic care or medical referral: relevant options are explained according to your situation and the limitations of each.
- 3
Track specific changes
Compare pain and a chosen ability: walking, sitting or using the arm. Progress and neurological signs help reassess the next steps.
Suitability, limitations and other options
The affected region, neurological symptoms and contraindications must be clarified before any discussion of decompression. A herniation on imaging is not enough to determine suitability. Spinal decompression uses motorized traction; results vary and no individual benefit can be guaranteed. NICE advises against traction for low back pain with or without sciatica. This recommendation, the uncertainties and the alternatives must be explained. Read the NICE guidelines.
03 / PREPARE FOR MY VISIT

Guidance to help you understand the condition and prepare your questions.

TAGMED Clinic welcomes you at 1150, rue Lévis, bureau 200, Terrebonne (Québec) J6W 5S6, on Mondays and Wednesdays, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., by appointment. Availability and confirmation are provided through GOrendezvous.
Does a herniated disc require surgery?
No. Many situations are initially managed without surgery. However, worsening neurological signs or persistent symptoms may require medical or surgical advice.
What is the difference between a lumbar and a cervical herniation?
The first affects the lower back and may radiate into the leg; the second affects the neck and may radiate into the arm. The examination must clarify the region and impact.
Could decompression be considered in my situation?
The affected region, neurological symptoms and contraindications must be clarified before any discussion of spinal decompression. A herniation on imaging is not enough to determine eligibility.
How many sessions should I plan for?
The name of a condition cannot determine the number of sessions. Goals, tolerance and progress should guide the development and reassessment of the plan. Also ask when a change in approach would be needed.
Are consultations reimbursed?
Osteopathy receipts may be issued. Check your policy conditions and whether your insurer recognizes the practitioner. Services are not covered by RAMQ.
