Understanding your concerns
The impact on function guides the discussion
Spinal stenosis means a narrowing of the spinal canal. When it affects the lower back, it may be associated with leg pain, numbness or heaviness. Some people experience more difficulty walking or standing and find relief when sitting.
Walking:
Usual distance, necessary breaks and recovery.
Standing
Tolerance while shopping or doing household tasks.
Independence
Getting around, balance and activities you would like to maintain.
Preparing a useful question
Note approximately how long or how far you can walk before a break, and what helps you start again. These measures describe your limitations; you are not being asked to push yourself to exhaustion.
A visit in your area
Organizing a Terrebonne consultation when your legs tire
For your visit to 1150, rue Lévis, prepare information about your usual movements: shopping, walking, stairs and time spent standing. If you need someone to accompany you, arrange this before booking. You can ask the clinic about specific access needs at 450 704-4447.
The GOrendezvous calendar is the booking system for Terrebonne. If you are coming from a nearby North Shore community, check your route and travel conditions on the day of your visit. Note what happens when you drive, walk from your vehicle or wait while standing: these observations can help you explain the practical difficulties you experience.
First consultation
Preparing clear, useful records
Clear records make discussion easier. You do not need to write a lengthy history: the main milestones, available documents and a few priority questions provide a useful starting point.
- Available imaging reports and their dates.
- A list of treatments you have tried, including benefits and difficulties.
- Relevant medical history, previous procedures and current treatments.
- The activities you would like to return to, along with travel or scheduling constraints.
If you have not had imaging, do not delay asking for information for that reason alone. Whether an examination is needed depends on your situation; booking an appointment does not constitute a prescription for new imaging.
Care options
Where does spinal decompression fit in?
Clinique TAGMED offers spinal decompression among its services. The consultation provides an opportunity to discuss whether it may be appropriate for your situation, the precautions to consider and other care options.
The objectives of any follow-up are based on your symptoms and abilities. The number of sessions, frequency of visits and reassessment criteria cannot be determined from a single term on an MRI report. Benefits and limitations should be explained before you make a decision.
Care may involve complementary approaches or coordination with the professionals already treating you. A technique is not suitable for everyone and does not guarantee that an imaging finding will disappear or that every patient will have the same outcome.

Defining an observable outcome
With your care professional, choose one or two useful measures: an activity you can tolerate better, easier travel or less discomfort during the day. Follow-up should allow you to discuss changes and adjust the approach if necessary.
What to expect

Frequently Asked Questions

Does spinal stenosis always affect the lower back?
No. It can affect different regions of the spine. This page mainly addresses lower-back difficulties and walking; mention if your report concerns your neck instead.
Why should I note my walking distance?
It provides a concrete measure for understanding your limitations and tracking changes. The aim is to describe your daily life, without causing worsening symptoms to perform a test on yourself.

No. The possibilities depend on symptoms, any deficits, the functional impact and treatments you have already tried. The discussion may include a medical referral when your situation warrants it.
