Disc herniation causing pain in Ancaster or Hamilton? Evidence-based one-on-one treatment. Free 20-minute consultation. Book online today.
Book Free Consultation →A disc herniation diagnosis can feel alarming — but the evidence tells a reassuringly different story. Research published in the American Journal of Neuroradiology (1990) — a landmark imaging study — found that disc herniations and degenerative disc changes are extremely common findings in people with no pain whatsoever, establishing that structural findings on imaging do not necessarily cause symptoms or predict outcomes.
More importantly, the vast majority of disc herniations respond very well to conservative physiotherapy management. At Interlink Physiotherapy we help patients across Ancaster and Hamilton understand their diagnosis accurately and build a clear evidence-based plan to resolve their symptoms — without unnecessary fear or dependence on passive treatment.
