Referral is often the best way for you to make the right health care choice. Here is what others have to say about their chiropractic and acupuncture care.

Yours in health,
Dr. Tammy Bowler


The difference at Back in Balance Muskoka is the individualized care! There's no feeling of "standard treatment" with Tammy's approach. Each time I visit, I am listened to,… and then treated accordingly with the right combination of modalities that are indicated for that visit. Sometimes, all I need is a "tune up". But sometimes I have an injury or challenging area that Tammy is able to reach into her bag of tricks to get to the core of the problem. From Active Release Techniques, to Shockwave Therapy, and beyond. I always leave feeling cared for and a little bit taller!

Tammy is very knowledgeable, caring and I always feel better after seeing her. She is the best chiropractor I have ever experienced. I am thrilled I found you.

Tammy truly listened to me, and quickly identified what was going on. Not only is she knowledgable and professional, her passion for helping people is evident, she is genuinely focused on her patients well-being. After a few treatments she had reduced the discomfort significantly and I am now able to shake people's hands again without grimacing....or resorting to fist pumps. Thank you Tammy!

After thinking my career was coming to an end with such shoulder pain, I found Dr.Tammy! She treated me and right away I knew I was on my way to recovery!

Doctor Bowler has been a huge help in my recovery from a soccer injury. I was recommended to her from a good friend who said Doctor Bowler was one of a kind in the sense that rather than just saying she treats the patient and the injury, she actually does. 
Doctor Bowler was very thorough establishing the backstory to the injury. This to me is important because I knew she treated each individual case separately and does not have a “one size fits all” mentality to rehabilitation.
Another huge positive for me is Doctor Bowler keeps up to date with current treatments available for her clients. Her own professional development shows me she is keen to be on the cutting edge of treatments and therapies that will allow her patients to recover as quickly as possible.
Doctor Bowler is very supportive when it comes to patients own work that we must do for rehabilitation. Doctor Bowler was always encouraging and listened when I discussed with her about my at home rehabilitation.
Finally, Doctor Bowler or Tammy as she asked to be called has a great sense of humour, is thoughtful and caring, and has such a positive outlook that these qualities alone help in ones’ recovery.
Go see Doctor Tammy. Your body will thank you for it!

Tammy is top drawer and has always been awesome to me. Only Muskoka chiropractor I would recommend

Dr. Tammy offers such a depth of service, and speaking from experience, fantastic care. Muskoka is lucky to have her.

Tammy is a skilled chiropractor and acupuncturist. She is a great listener and treated my condition with success. I would highly recommend her.

Tracy

The best chiro in Muskoka, as far as I’m concerned.

Hi Tammy,
Just a quick note to say thanks for helping me get to the start line healthy. I achieved a personal best at the Marathon running a 3:40. You crossed the finish line with me as you were part of my team. I was on pace for a 3:25 until the 50 km headwinds from 25 km to the finish. Mother nature was not happy that day. I swore at her a few times and gave her my opinions. ha ha. Thanks again!!

I was a severe migraine sufferer, unable to function during my frequent episodes. I had tried many other chiropractors in the past, but no one else compares to Tammy. In conjunction with adjustments, she uses stretching and massage. I very rarely suffer from migraines any more. When I do, I go to Tammy and leave feeling like a million bucks.

Holly

I have suffered from lower back pain. I was getting regular chiropractic adjustments, but I frequently left these visits feeling that I wasn't getting enough relief. I have found it in Dr. Tammy's Active Release Techniques®. She also created a stretching and exercise program for me. The visits were frequent initially, but in a short time, the distance between visits grew, and now the goal is for me to visit once a month for maintenance. I am delighted that I now have periods of time with no back pain or discomfort whatsoever. I feel that ART and the exercises work better for me than what I consider to be just the "typical" chiropractic treatments.

Debra

I attended Dr. Tammy's osteoporosis seminar because given my medical history as a child and my Grandma's severe osteoporosis, I felt I was at risk. I'm glad I attended the seminar. I learned that my many positive lifestyle choices should help to prevent such a condition. Nonetheless, after the talk, I went to my family doctor and requested a bone scan. She was reluctant, considering I'm only 39 and osteoporosis usually only develops in women after they hit menopause in their 50s. Because I was able to identify several major risk factors, I convinced her to run the test, which revealed I had osteoporosis. I am grateful to Dr. Tammy, because she gave me the push to get the bone density test and catch this condition early. I can only imagine the deterioration of my condition if I had waited until menopause.

Tammy was referred to me by a co-worker as I needed to make a change in my treatment and try a different approach. I was not having success with what I was doing. Tammy listened to what I had to say and developed an approach she felt would work for me. Within a month, my problem had corrected. Funny thing is, although I went to Tammy for a Chiropractic adjustment, no adjustments were actually administered. Tammy felt an adjustment would hinder my progress. I was skeptical at first but when I experienced the results, I couldn't argue with the approach. I am now 100% pain-free and certainly would recommend Tammy to anyone who is looking for a true health care professional. Thank you, Tammy.

Tammy has been my chiropractor for the past 8 years during which time my age and participation in various sports have created periods of pain and restricted mobility. Tammy is very knowledgeable with respect to the mechanics of the human body, and is highly intuitive. With her advanced training in ART, acupuncture, ultrasound and other modalities, she has always been able to bring relief and restore me to health. She comes with my highest recommendation.

David M

Tammy is much more than a Chiropractor...which in itself is pretty impressive. She has helped work on troubled spots with her Shock wave machine and Graston technique etc...she is like a Chiropractor and Sports Physio all in one...highly recommend.

Andrew T

Tammy is a highly effective chiropractor with a wide range of treatment modalities. I joke with her that she will eventually go out of business because unlike some chiro's she solves your problem within the first few visits. I have seen her for sports-related issues and found her to be excellent in diagnosis and treatment.

Ray L

Tammy really honoured my needs and made me feel really seen and heard as a patient. Within 3 sessions, I was already feeling 80-90% back to normal (from 40-50% when we started) after experiencing a few months of hip pain before going to see her. I highly recommend working with Tammy!

Erika

I have been a patient of Tammy’s for a thumb issue, problems after knee replacement surgery and sciatic nerve problems. With every issue, I have had only a few appointments and left my last appointment feeling 100%! I have had both shock wave and acupuncture treatments which have been positive experiences. Tammy listens and is very easy to talk to. I highly recommend Tammy Bowler.

Marsha S

Found Dr. Tammy on-line. So happy I did. Kind, gentle spirit who went straight to the issue and eliminated the pain I had been experiencing for months within four visits. Very knowledgeable and professional with a wide range of techniques at her disposal. Would highly recommend.

Joyce C

Extremely professional, very kind and definitely knows her stuff. Has been a huge help with my recovery and I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for assistance.

Stefan B

I have suffered from chronic pain in my shoulders and lower back for years. . My family doctor said that because the damage was done to my shoulders nothing could be done (no Surgery} other than using muscle relaxants, pain killers which I took for a long period of time while suffering from extreme side effects, sleepless nights. I was referred to Tammy and after a few sessions, I have full mobility, no pain, and am extremely pleased. Tammy used shock therapy and chiropractic techniques and has provided me with relief. I no longer take muscle relaxants, pain killers and enjoy a full night's sleep every night.
