Low back pain is very rarely a sign of serious injury. In many individuals, symptoms are influenced by mobility, the ability to tolerate certain loads, strength, movement habits, sleep, stress, and activity progression.<\/p>\n

At Physio Plateau, on Plateau-Mont-Royal in Montreal<\/strong>, the clinical assessment aims to determine what reproduces, relieves, or modifies your symptoms. Depending on the clinical picture, your physiotherapist examines the lumbar and thoracic spine, pelvis, hip, strength, neurological sensation, and your functional movements.<\/p>\n

Treatment prioritizes an active approach: education, therapeutic exercises, gradual return to activities, manual therapy when relevant, and self-management strategies<\/strong>. The goal is to restore your function and reduce the risk of recurrence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”88px”][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInLeft” width=”4\/12″ et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_604cdb2828499″ css=”.vc_custom_1777321851732{margin-top: 4% !important;margin-right: 4% !important;margin-bottom: 4% !important;margin-left: 4% !important;border-top-width: 2px !important;border-right-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-left-width: 2px !important;padding-top: 6% !important;padding-right: 6% !important;padding-bottom: 6% !important;padding-left: 6% !important;background-color: #EDEDED7A !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-radius: 2px !important;border-color: #000000 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efc766a2e80″ box_shadow_color=”#00000047″]

DISC \/ MCKENZIE APPROACH <\/span><\/p>\n

LUMBAR DISC HERNIATION<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

A disc herniation or protrusion can cause low back pain, with or without radiation to the buttock or leg. The McKenzie\/MDT approach can be used when assessment reveals a clear directional response, particularly centralization of symptoms. Treatment typically combines education, appropriate repeated movements, activity progression, and functional exercises.<\/span><\/p>\n

STRUCTURE \/ STABILITY <\/span><\/p>\n

SPONDYLOLYSIS AND SPONDYLOLISTHESIS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Spondylolysis corresponds to a defect in the vertebral isthmus, while spondylolisthesis involves a slippage of a vertebra. These conditions can be asymptomatic or cause low back pain, especially with certain loads or extensions. Physiotherapy aims to improve lumbo-pelvic control, strength, effort tolerance, and activity management.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323801101{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #C02026 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf1e4e56a” box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#00000080″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1791311621306{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

DEGENERATIVE <\/span><\/p>\n

LUMBAR OSTEOARTHRITIS AND SPINAL STENOSIS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Osteoarthritis and lumbar stenosis can lead to stiffness, lower back pain, heaviness, or discomfort in the legs when walking. Treatment aims to improve mobility, strength, endurance, and functional tolerance, with exercises adapted to the patient’s profile.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69e27be37238c”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323784107{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #C02026 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf063d0e3″ box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#000000″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1789486348632{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

VERY COMMON <\/span><\/p>\n

LUMBAR SPRAIN AND MECHANICAL LOW BACK PAIN<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Mechanical low back pain can appear after exertion, a sudden awkward movement, a prolonged period in the same position, or without a specific event. Physiotherapy seeks to restore movement, reduce apprehension, progressively strengthen the core, and safely reintroduce meaningful activities.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323792507{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #B90000 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf15e236e” box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#000000″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1789486387785{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

NERVOUS \/ RADIATING <\/span><\/p>\n

LUMBO-SCIATICA AND RADICULOPATHY<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Pain radiating down to the buttock or leg, sometimes accompanied by tingling, numbness, or weakness, may suggest nerve root irritation. Neurological and mechanical assessment helps determine the most appropriate strategy, including exercises, relief positions, and gradual activity progression.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323801101{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #C02026 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf1e4e56a” box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#00000080″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1791311703787{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

BONE HEALTH<\/span><\/p>\n

OSTEOPOROSIS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Osteoporosis weakens bones and increases fracture risk. Physiotherapy can contribute to movement safety, strengthening, balance, fall prevention, and adapted exercise. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69e27be37238c”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323784107{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #C02026 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf063d0e3″ box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#000000″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1789486448603{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

PELVIS \/ SACROILIAC<\/span><\/p>\n

SACROILIAC DYSFUNCTION<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Pain around the sacroiliac joint can be influenced by mobility, load, pelvic control, or local irritation. Rather than limiting itself to the notion of a ‘displaced’ joint, the assessment seeks to identify movements and stresses that reproduce symptoms and to improve tolerance through adapted exercises.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323792507{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #B90000 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf15e236e” box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#000000″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1791311786790{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

THORACIC \/ POSTURE <\/span><\/p>\n

THORACIC DYSFUNCTION<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Thoracic stiffness, scoliosis, hyperkyphosis, or discomfort associated with certain postures can limit trunk mobility and influence breathing or activities. Management aims to improve available mobility, strength, endurance, and the ability to vary positions rather than seeking a single ‘perfect’ posture.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1777323801101{margin-top: 5% !important;margin-right: 5% !important;margin-bottom: 5% !important;margin-left: 5% !important;border-left-width: 4px !important;padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #0A0A0AE6 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-radius: 4px !important;border-color: #C02026 !important;}” box_shadow_inset=”true” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69efcf1e4e56a” box_shadow_h=”3px” box_shadow_v=”3px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_spread=”3px” box_shadow_color=”#00000080″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1791311776463{background-color: #FFFFFF00 !important;border-color: #B1000000 !important;}”]<\/p>\n

COSTAL DYSFUNCTION<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Costal pain can originate from the costovertebral joints, intercostal muscles, or the chest wall. Costochondritis can cause pain in the front of the chest, while costal irritation can be aggravated by breathing, rotation, or coughing. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69f0c58473f06″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″ alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1777387101877{padding: 5% !important;background-color: #FDFDFD00 !important;border-color: #B9000000 !important;}” _et_uniqid=”et_custom_uniqid_new_69f0c62e86986″ box_shadow_color=”#FFFFFF00″]\n\t\t
