ND Profile

Scott Dainty, ND, MSc, CISSN

Dr. Scott is an advocate for healthy living with a passion for pain management, injury rehabilitation and managing stress. He is a registered Naturopathic Doctor and has a practice with a focus on pain management, burnout, and optimizing sports performance. 

Part of managing pain is also addresing digestive complaints, sleep disturbances, internal and external stress, among other factors from a BioPsychoSocial model of care. Dr. Scott's passion for pain management and health has led him to injection techniques: perineural injection therapy (PIT), prolotherapy, prolozone, and IV nutrient therapy

His journey started as a kinesiology major at San Diego State University which led to an M.Sc. kinesiology research program at Wilfrid Laurier University. During this research program, he investigated occupational shoulder and low back pain. Combining his passions of activity, sports performance, human movement, research, and pain, he found naturopathic medicine and went on to study at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. This shift started shaping his love of managing an individual's pain and improving the quality of life for every one of his patients.

He is also a certified sports nutritionist and works with all levels of athletes, from youth athletes to weekend warriors and those training for marathons and races, to elite athletes at the Olympic and professional levels. Dr. Scott works in conjunction with athlete's trainers and coaches to provide individual- and sport-specific nutrition strategies that will help increase their training adaptations, improve recovery between exercise and events, and ultimately help them reach their goals.
