Granville Physio

Jim is one of the most knowledgeable physio I've received treatment from.

I will continue to see him as he keeps me on track and in progress for my ultramarathons and my crit racing.

Jim enjoys exploring new ways to provide effective and efficient treatment and the conversations during treatment feel like I'm at a barbershop which reduces anxiety during my IMS sessions.

Thank you for getting me back from not being able to walk due to my heels spurs to completing my backyard ultra this year.

Melissa, her front desk staff is very helpful and friendly as well!

Flew from London to see if Jim was as good as we’d heard and he exceeded expectations. He stabilised my left knee and the pain in my meniscus has completely gone for the first time in 5 years and it was immediate. I can’t believe it. Thanks Jim.

I’ve been suffering with trochanteric tenderness in my left hip and plantar fasciitis in my left foot. After one session of IMS and Shockwave therapy my hip has been released and my foot does not hurt when I walk on it. I went to see a physiotherapist and chiropractor several times on separate occasions about these problems in the past and did not experience anywhere near the positive result after the many sessions.

Very good experience
Dealt with the issue. Treated me and got relief IMS is the best

Wonderful people, very personable and caring. I have a bad ankle and my physiotherapist took pristine care of my situation and self for the length of my appointment, I've noticed massive improvement in such a short period of time, and he provides care for my sensitive skin in the wrap used to hold my bone in place. Genuinely a great place for all your physio needs, the aftercare exercises are also thoroughly explained as to how to complete them effectively and why it's important to do them.

Amazing care, knowledge, coaching and support with Jim Bowie. If you can get into his schedule you will find yourself with an experienced and exacting practitioner. Every treatment has given me positive results

Jim Bowie somehow knows just where my issues are and after a brief discussion, he sets about fixing me. After putting me back into line, he gives me great exercises (which I need to do more often) to speed my recovery. All in all, a great way to heal my old body. Thanks Jim!

Jim is the best! I started experiencing back spasms in 2018 and after a few disappointing visits to different physiotherapists in my area, my friend referred me to Granville Physio. It is a much farther drive for me but I am happy to make the trip out to see Jim. His expertise is unmatched and IMS needling has helped me immensely. The front desk staff are always incredibly friendly too. Thank you guys so much!

Cheryl is the best physiotherapist I have seen. She knows how to get to the root of the problem, gives a helpful exercise program and modifies as I get stronger. I do IMS, Cheryl is the fourth therapist I have been to, and I highly recommend her therapy.

Jim and Damien are amazing.

I first saw Jim 10 years ago and within minutes of walking in the door he told me he could see exactly what was going on with me and he got to work fixing it! When Jim was off for a bit a few years back, I began seeing Damien and he too is fantastic! I’d follow either of these two anywhere!

They both really know what they’re doing!

The staff are friendly and I wouldn’t hesitate to send any one there for treatment.

Jim Bowie and his amazing team are a rare collection of experienced physiotherapists serving the Granville/ Vancouver Centre area.

Jim’s expertise is second to none and he has helped me with a number lumbar-pelvic and shoulder issues over 10 years I have worked with him.

He has helped me with both acute and chronic conditions that have arisen from my recreational sports and occupation. He looks at the body as a whole and helps with a plan to simply move better.

He is quite effective with IMS and other manual techniques.

I recommend Jim and his team to all of my clients who are active and want to keep moving through the ups and downs that life brings.

I've been going to see Damien at Granville Physio for a few years now whenever I have an injury or pain or need a tune-up before a race, competition, or big physical challenge. I always get quick and helpful treatment and after two visits or so I'm right on track functionally. I recommend trying needles as they have been so effective for me! Damien is super knowledgable, very experienced, and really friendly and I definitely highly recommend him and this office! I was originally recommended this place through a friend who had a serious shoulder injury that was totally transformed by Damien's advice and I'm so glad I followed the recommendation here.

At Granville physio you can be sure ur time will be respected and you will receive full 1 on 1 attention throughout your scheduled time slot. There is an atmosphere of excellence in this clinic which stems from the top down and average care is way below their standards. If u want results then book an appointment, even if u have to wait month!

Martin is very professional and is very knowledgeable in his line of work. He gives you good advice on how to treat your injury in between visits. My process has been slow but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I would not be where I am without his expertise and treatments. Thank you very very much Martin!

Jim is an excellent physiotherapist. I have only good things to say about his practice and skills. I really appreciate that he works at dealing with the root issues rather than focusing only on symptoms. I've been dealing with ongoing neck and back tension and headaches for at least 15 years, and he's helped me more in just a few weeks than any of the other therapists I've seen over the years.

Damien is an amazing therapist. Not only does he treat the symptoms, but he will also assess and get to the root issue of the problem. He provides practical solutions, education, helpful exercises, adjustments and is a wizard with the IMS needle- quick and efficient. He’s also compassionate, personable and empathetic. I always feel so much better after my treatments with him.

I’m quite active and Damien has treated many of my physical injuries, and continues to do so to this day. I would highly recommend seeing him, or any of the talented, educated and informed therapists at Granville Physio. The clinic is clean, organized and all of the staff members are so kind. You won’t be disappointed.

I had suffered a very bad knee injury 2 years ago that would not get better after months of rest and physiotherapy. I visited Granville Physio a year ago and saw Jim who took the time to diagnose my issue and explain to me why i had suffered this injury. I then underwent IMS needle therapy and noticed a huge improvement from the first session. I went from having incredibly stiff and painful knee to being able to sit cross legged in a few days with no problem and have been more or less pain free since. I have also visited James on a few occassions and he has been incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. I am now working on my posture and find the dry needling is really helping with alleviating pain and stiffness while I train my back. I have been to a few other physiotherapists in Vancouver and abroad and Granville physio has been the best by miles.
