Besides a Diploma in Registered Massage Therapy, Dainis has a Bachelor’s degree in Sports Science and a Bachelor’s degree in Sports Education. Dainis has been studying human body sciences since 2001 and has an extensive background in Sports and Sports Education. In his native Latvia, he used to run a Martial Arts Sports club while he himself competed at a high level. In Canada, Dainis graduated from West Coast College of Massage Therapy (3000-hour program Diploma) in 2013. Combining that with his strong background in Sports he can relate to athletes and help them to achieve their goals offering strong help during their post-surgical or post-injury rehab. During and after his studies Dainis used to work with the UBC track and field team, has been and still is a healthcare team member at many marathons, bike races and other sports events in BC (BC Bike Race, Gran Fondo, Ride to Conquer Cancer, lululemon SeaWheeze)... However, Dainis doesn’t limit his practice working with athletes exclusively. He has been involved in various Multiple Sclerosis outreaches, where he wrote a case study that earned an award of distinction from the RMTBC. He also did an outreach at “GF Strong” where he worked with patients recovering from surgeries, stroke and spinal cord injuries. In his RMT practice, Dainis employs various techniques all within the RMT scope of practice and assists his patients in returning them back to their normal daily activities.
