Mitra graduated from the Canadian College in Massage & Hydrotherapy in 2018 and is in good standing with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario. He has been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2019 and since has seen a large range of clientele in his short career. Mitra is typically sought after for deeper tissue massage and myofascial treatments, but is also proficient with the gentler general Swedish Massage techniques that help improve circulation and stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system. Mitra has also been certified in ultrasound therapy and is looking to add more modalities and courses to his repertoire.

Mitra has an innate need to help others. Blending that compassion with his interest in biology and anatomy didn’t occur to him until late in high school when he was first introduced to Kinesiology as a subject. Along with this interest in Kinesiology and Biology, Mitra was also very interested in athletics. Sports and conditioning have always been a part of Mitra’s life but it wasn’t until high school where he participated in the powerlifting team, football team, and attended a Muay Thai kickboxing gym that he really began to develop an interest in human movement. Mitra then was accepted to the University of Waterloo for Kinesiology but quickly realized that learning style wasn’t suited for him and began to pursue massage therapy. Massage therapy allowed Mitra to work with both his mind and his hands. The most rewarding thing for Mitra about using this type of manual therapy is the tangible change and relatively instant results that clients see from each treatment.

Larissa has had a passion for massage therapy ever since pushing on her mother’s trigger points at age 6 to relieve her tension headaches. This passion developed more through high school when Larissa joined a competitive swim team and started taking training seriously. The intense workouts resulted in many sport related injuries which Larissa would treat by coaching her 12 year old sister through a “massage treatment”. Growing up in a third world country (Peru, South America) meant that alternative medicine of this form was not a popular option. Larissa, having experienced the benefits of this form of manual therapy, was determined to develop the art of aiding the body in the healing process. She wanted others to be able to experience the relief that massage therapy provided.

This determination led her back to Canada where she attended the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy. It was here that Larissa’s fascination with science, human anatomy, as well as her desire to help people merged. She graduated with honours completing extensive hours of clinical practice and outreaches that put her in both sport and hospital settings.
