Rob and Clarissa Dickson are the owners of Integrated Therapeutix, a massage therapy business located in La Mesa. The Dicksons are licensed to practice massage therapy and have been certified by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork. With determination and positive attitude, the couple has been serving La Mesans and visitors while raising a family in Santee since last year.

Integrated Therapeutix recently celebrated their one-year anniversary and California State Senator Joel Anderson, who represents La Mesa, recently provided them a Senate Certificate of Recognition.

“It takes dedication and hard work to keep a small business going and I am always honored to celebrate our district’s businesses’ milestones with them,” said Anderson. “I am glad they chose to open their business in La Mesa and thrilled to learn that they have had a successful year since opening their doors.”

The Dicksons especially enjoy having their business in La Mesa because “La Mesa is often a center of events,” said Clarissa. She also referred to La Mesa as having “a small town feel, [an] up-and-coming community.” Their passion and devotion to giving back to the community is why they chose La Mesa to open their business. Integrated Therapeutix gives discounts to military, law enforcement, fire department and anyone that works for, protects, or serves the county— all as a way of giving back.
The Dicksons plan on continuing their business in La Mesa and working on renovation projects to make their place even more welcoming.
