Dr. N. Anne Bowness- Chiropractor, B.A., B.P.H.E., B.Sc., D.C. 

Dr. Anne Bowness graduated in 1992 from the National College of Chiropractic in Chicago where she studied chiropractic and acupuncture. She practiced for 2 years in Chicago before returning to her hometown of North Bay, where she owned and operated Body Back in Motion for 8 years. After making the big move south, Dr. Bowness joined King West Chiropractic and built a tremendous practice in the heart of downtown Toronto. Dr. Bowness is a member of the College of Chiropractors of Ontario, and the Ontario Chiropractic Association. 

Dr. Bowness moved back to North bay in 2012 to build her clinic Structure Spine and Sport. Dr. Bowness has blended her unique background training, combining: the exercise component of her Phys. Ed. Degree (from Queen’s 
 University), her experience as a ranked sprint kayaker and coach, nutrition education, and her extensive training in
Orthopedics, and Sports Injury Rehabilitation into her treatment approach. She started on King Street West in North Bay, and recently expanded and moved to a bigger facility on Regina Street.
Dr. Bowness is as comfortable working with complicated athletic injuries as she is with simple headaches and taping ankles.
Her pledge to you is that “if your condition is something that she cannot help you with, she will help you find someone who can”… Challenge her… as she always says: “I like to use my brain”.
