Dustin (DC) McLeod

Dustin (DC) McLeod brings 16 years of hands-on clinical experience, along with a strong background in community service, to Coastal Sports & Wellness. Raised in Fort McMurray, Alberta, with family roots in Gros Morne, Newfoundland, Dustin graduated from ICT Northumberland in 2010 and is registered with the Massage Therapists and Wholistic Practitioners Association of the Maritimes. He has founded and operated two private clinics in Halifax and has led community programs that expand access to recreation, youth support, and inclusive services across the region.

Dustin’s clinical approach focuses on identifying and treating the root cause of pain, rather than simply addressing symptoms. He combines detailed assessment with manual therapy, dynamic stretching, and movement-based techniques, often incorporating Tai Yoga Massage principles, to help restore function and mobility. He also utilizes a variety of adjunct tools and modalities to deliver targeted, effective care tailored to each client’s individual needs.
