Our comment from PhysioFinder.net about Dr. Marc Bijman, Chiropractor:
Evidence-Based Chiropractic Care and Personalized Plans
Dr. Marc Bijman is widely recognized for his thorough and evidence-based approach to chiropractic care. Patients consistently highlight his ability to diagnose the root cause of their pain rather than just treating symptoms. He takes the time to educate patients on the science behind their condition, ensuring they understand the diagnosis and the treatment plan. This patient-centered approach, which prioritizes listening and explanation, has earned him high praise as a thoughtful and knowledgeable practitioner.
Rapid Relief and Effective Treatment Techniques
Many reviews emphasize the speed and effectiveness of the treatments. Whether addressing acute injuries from car accidents, chronic back pain, or specific issues like sciatica and vertigo, patients report significant improvement after just a few sessions. Dr. Bijman utilizes a combination of chiropractic adjustments and manual therapy to provide immediate relief. His skill in realigning the body and resolving issues such as subluxated ribs or neck tension is frequently noted as a key strength.
Active Recovery and Patient Education
A standout feature of the practice is the emphasis on active recovery. Dr. Bijman does not encourage dependency on long-term passive treatment; instead, he empowers patients with specific exercises, stretches, and strengthening techniques to perform at home. This holistic strategy, which includes correcting posture and addressing lifestyle factors, helps patients regain flexibility and strength quickly. Virtual sessions are also available, allowing for effective remote care and follow-ups.
Trusted by Athletes and the Community
The center is highly recommended by both individual patients and referring professionals, including other healthcare providers and athletes.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc Bijman is such a great chiropractor resource for all his health knowledge! He is passionate and driven in his work, actively works with his clients to achieve their health goals, and is always a pleasure to consult with!
Hello! Thank you for the review, we hope to continue helping people be active, live without pain and do the activities they love to do!
Fantastic experience: My experience with Dr. Marc Bijman has been nothing but pleasant. I sought Marc's expertise for a glute injury I sustained which hindered my ability to train at the gym. I was extremely nervous and pessimistic that I would not be able to train as I used to. However, Marc relieved all my fears and restored optimism, ultimately healing me. He was honest about the recovery process and provided so much helpful information along the way. I worked with Marc for about 2-3 months, seeing him on a weekly basis. He was thoughtful through the process and continually tested my strength abilities each visit allowing me get a better understanding of where I was at. Each week he would provide a stretching routine for me to complete to help with the recovery process. He healed my glute and I am now back training at the gym at full capacity. I will definitely be visiting Dr. Marc Bijman again in the future for any injury I encounter.
Thank you so much for taking the time to right the review Sarah. You're a hard-working and intelligent individual - all I did was provide the vehicle for you to drive in. All the best moving forward and we're happy to assist as needed in the future.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc Bijman is my preffered rehab and recovery Chiropractor. He always investigates the injury and helps place a plan for a quick recovery. His exercises and stretches also have helped reduce my workplace injuries so that I can enjoy doing things I love. Thanks!
Thank you for the fantastic review Missak, I'm really happy our team was able to assist you!
Fantastic experience: I came to see Dr. Marc with hip, lower back and neck pain and after a few adjustments I felt much better! I was just passing through Hamilton and was glad to find Dr. Marc to help with my pain. He taught me some exercises to do on my own and they have been helping as well! Thanks so much Dr. Marc!
Awesome to hear Andrea, thanks for being a great patient and best of luck with your next endeavours (or endeavors for you!)!
Fantastic experience: After 7 weeks of severe low back and leg pain, multiple appointments with multiple therapists, I gave Marc a try. He quickly diagnosed my issue as Sciatica and provided me with information about what it is, what to expect and some stretches to help repair the problem. Marc was also able to get me in very quickly which was nice!
Thank you so much for the glowing review, I'm glad you were able to have such a great experience. Most importantly, I hope you get better quickly!
Fantastic experience: We have been referring our clients to Dr. Marc for their Chiropractic needs some time now and the results and reviews have spoken for themselves. Dr. Marc is keen on injury prevention, as are we, and it's refreshing to find a practitioner who acknowledges and is aware of the unique needs of an an athlete and works with them to ensure longevity in their chosen sport rather than simply encouraging them to retire or choose other activities. Thank you for helping us ensure we can keep going strong!
Thank you very much for the thoughtful review. It's imperative at this time to give people are best care possible, so they can be well!
Fantastic experience: Marc is an amazing chiropractor. His calm demeanour and genuine willingness to help you achieve health and wellness are second to none. He is a consummate gentleman and takes time to get to know his clients. 5 stars !
Thank you Shawn, that really means a lot! I’m glad I could be of service to you and your family.
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for an attentive and knowledgeable chiropractor, I highly recommend Dr. Marc. He has a focused, unique and effective style that makes him a leader in his field. Before moving to Ontario he saw our family of 4 and also my Dad regularly. Throughout this time, he delivered specialized treatment plans to each of us for our own healing needs. We miss him very much in Victoria, as I’m sure all his clients here do too. To be honest, we have not found a replacement for our chiro void who fits quite right yet. He set the bar high.
Thank you Susie, what an amazing review. It's great serving a fantastic family like yours. You all make me look good with your hard work and dedication to your health.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc Bijman is amazing!. He listened to my needs and came up with a great plan to get my back into shape. He taught me how to properly care for my back and showed me some good exercises that I can practise at home He's very professional and made me super comfortable whenever I went to see him. I couldn't ask for a better chiropractor.
Thank you so much for the fantastic review Renee. All the best to you and your great partner!
Fantastic experience: When I first met Dr. Bijman a little more than a year ago I was having back pain and my flexibility was very limited. In a matter of a few short months, Dr. Bijman set up a treatment plan that significantly reduced my pain and dramatically increased my flexibility so much so that I now am back to enjoying all the sports I was so used to playing without pain. Thank you for all your great work Dr. Bijman!
Thank you for the fantastic review Blake. I'm glad you've been able to do all the things you love to do!
Fantastic experience: I have found Marc to be a great Chiropractor as he takes the time to check in, listens to what I'm saying, provides relief, and also advise (and encouragement) on how to maintain a healthy back/neck. I also really appreciate the fact he respects my time in not having me wait for my appointments as I've had with many other practitioners.
Thanks so much Brian, this is very much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Dr. Marc now for almost 3 years and My hips have never been better. I’ve been to so many chiropractors in the past and they’ve never really told me what was going on or ways to help manage them. Marc immediately got me orthotics and told me what the plan was to help my hips. I’ve had such an amazing experience.
Thanks so much for the review Hannah. This is very much appreciated. It's been fantastic treating such an amazing person like yourself, who works so hard and gets a little better everyday!
Fantastic experience: I went to see a Chiropractor for the first time for acute mechanical neck pain, Dr. Marc Bijman of Equilibrium Therapeutics - Tillicum did an amazing job with just 3 sessions. Very professional, reassuring and taught me couple of exercises I can do at home. I just found myself the best Chiropractor in Victoria.
Thank you so much for the review, I'm really glad I was able to help. Keep up the good work on your end!
Fantastic experience: I don't leave reviews often, but this one is well deserved. Dr. Marc is great and the staff is very friendly. I've had experiences with other chiros, they were okay, however, the improvements were minimal. Dr. Marc was able to get me from off work and barely functioning to pretty close to 100% over 4 treatments. Highly recommend!
Josh, thank you so much for the great review! I'm happy you're feeling better and able to get back working!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc helped me heal a chronic back injury of several years after several years of failed treatment with other professionals ranging in focus. He has a holistic approach and a bias towards evidence-based treatment, so you can focus on what’s most important. I’ve also been seeing Dr. Marc for a more recent injury and doing virtual sessions. This has been equally effective since the vast majority of issues do not rely on an in-person ‘quick fixes’ but the hard work you put in your daily life. This relies on a solid diagnosis and thoughtful plan of attack, which he will provide.
Thank you Jake, what a fantastic review, I'm glad we were able to help
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc quickly saw my back pain was a subluxated rib and sorted it out within a few visits! Thanks!
Thank you very much Nick, very much appreciate the review and glad we were able to help!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Bijman is professional, caring, and awesome at what he does! The treatments helped the immediate pain I was in and Dr. Bijman also showed me some good exercises to build strength in my shoulder going forward. I highly recommend :-)
Thank you so much Rosalind! I'm so glad we were able to help you out.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc did a fantastic job helping to fix up my most recent neck problems. He provided a thorough treatment plan and had my issue resolved within a few short visits.
Thank you so much Robyn, glad we could help! Looking forward to working with you again in the future.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc has been the best thing for my back. I went from needing painkillers just to get through the day to be comfortable again. Absolutely fantastic service and care is put into each visit. It makes what I thought would be a stressful process something I’m always looking forward to for my next appointment. The staff has been fantastic and very good with their safety protocols everything is constantly sanitized and I’ve never seen a face not covered by a mask and hand sanitizer has always been available, it’s the safest I feel at any place that isn’t my own house.
I'm glad you've had such an amazing experience Taylor. Thank you for the thoughtful review and it's been a pleasure working with you!
Fantastic experience: After seeing Dr. Marc for my TMJ issue, I feel so much better. He took time to listen to my concerns and provide great treatment plan. Highly recommended! Thank you Dr.Marc!
Thank you so much Arlene, glad to hear you're doing so well!
Fantastic experience: Marc has been working with me on some hip issues due to developmental hip dysplasia and with his treatment and exercises he’s given me I’m improving rapidly. On top of that he’s a super nice guy too! 5 starts well deserved!
Thank you so much Mirjam. Glad you're doing better. I'd love to take all the credit but your hard work and exercise have greatly contributed!
Fantastic experience: I came to see Dr.Marc with really bad vertigo that’s been on for 3 days. After one visit and some home care, vertigo disappeared. I am so grateful that he not only dealt with my vertigo but continued the treatment to address other issues related to vertigo with his expertise as a chiropractor. I felt great! Dr Marc gave me back the confidence to go back to driving right away!
Thank you so much glad we could help! The most important thing is you have the confidence!
Fantastic experience: I woke up one morning and could barely move my head around. I called for an 'emergency' appt and came to see Dr. Marc and the Equilibrium crew. They were able to get me from an 8 out of 10 pain to 95% improvement almost instantaneously. I wasn't sure about Chiro's before but after this realignment my mood is definitely switched to supporting them.
Hi Steve, thank you for the fantastic review. I'm glad we can turn you on to chiropractic :), but most of all happy to get you better!
Fantastic experience: I came to see Dr. Marc after a car accident. I was off work and had pain up to an 8/10. Dr. Marc was able to get me back to full capacity at work and in all of my life endeavours!
Thank you so much for the review Shae. Glad you're doing well. Keep up those power hikes !
Fantastic experience: I love working out from home and really tweaked my back. I went to see Dr. Marc, and he fixed me up almost instantaneously and gave me some helpful exercises to continue doing. I was so impressed with the level of care. He's not one of those chiropractors that you have to see the rest of your life. Very happy I chose to go in that day. The facility is also very clean, and COVID screens are well-executed.
Hi Amanda, thank you so much for the review. Glad we were able to help - Move well and move often!
Fantastic experience: I first came to Equilibrium with a hip issue, and Dr. Marc was able to fix me up. I've continued to see him, and he's been so much more than a Chiropractor to me; he's been, my guardian angel I have always felt so comfortable and welcome coming in. I feel lucky to have found such a wonderful Chiropractor and always feel more myself after every session.
Thanks so much for the review Jared. You are one of Victoria's guardian angels!
Fantastic experience: After fracturing my elbow in a snowboarding accident, I had limited range in all motions. Through Dr. Bijman's focused treatment and research, I was able to regain range of motion and strength in my elbow . Thanks Marc!
You're welcome Eric. Glad I could help!
Fantastic experience: I came into see Dr. Marc in December after getting into a car accident. I had neck and shoulder pain, and weird numbness into my left hand. Dr. Marc has fixed me up, and I'm feeling better than I did before the accident! Thank-you!
Thank-you very much Eva!
Fantastic experience: I came to Marc after a car crash where I had been t-boned - which had caused a significant amount of pain in my hips, neck, back, & spine. I instantly felt a difference after my first session & my body has continued to get better ever since. I am beyond thankful for Marc's professionalism and incredible work ethic. He is so kind, compassionate and considerate. I have never felt like "just another patient" of his. :)
Thank-you so much Stephanie! You're unique in so many amazing ways and will never be "another patient".
Fantastic experience: Great experience and very happy to have met Marc. He is the best. I would highly recommend seeing him.
Thank you for the review Rich. You’re an amazing individual yourself.

Thank-you for the amazing review Lindsay. FFF doesn't begin to describe you!
Fantastic experience: Dr Marc has helped me so much I've the last few years. After seeing many other Chiropractors for the same problem, I decided to see Dr Marc. His initial treatment helped me more than 2 years of treatments with other professionals. He continues to help me and I feel stronger and a little bit taller(lol) every time I see him. He has helped me take my care into my own hands with exercises and strengthening techniques. I feel stronger and have less pain. I couldn't have asked for more. Thanks so much!!
Thank-you so much Joanna what an amazing review!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc is thorough, and dedicated to his patients. His knowledge and time taken to educate on diagnosis and plan of management is above an beyond other practitioners I’ve seen. Recommended to anyone. You won’t be disapponted.
Thanks Nick!
Fantastic experience: Out of the several chiropractors I've seen, Dr. Bijman is definitely the best. He is very thorough in his approach and is very much a people person/easy to talk to. He truly cares about each individual and what's going on in their lives - he understands all realms of health, not just in the physical sense. Additionally, I used to have sharp pain in my neck and shoulders after sitting for long hours at my desk job - now I'm pain-free! Between Dr. Bijman and the physiotherapist he referred me to, the treatment plan is working and I'm so grateful. I highly recommend him :)
Thank you Janine glad we could help you!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Marc is a very kind hearted and passionate individual. He spends a lot of time with you and asks about your hobbies and interests which play a role in his treatments. I found this very interesting because most doctors do not create specific treatment plans based on different lifestyles. I can safely say I would trust him to treat my family because of this and his comfortable adjustments. Highly recommended!
Thanks Dan!
