​Mara Tingley, BS, CMT, CVT

Mara is a North Carolina native with a love for knowledge and education. She has been a massage therapist for over 10 years and a veterinary nurse for over 5 years.

After graduating from Vanderbilt University with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, Mara worked in Massachusetts as a therapeutic horse back riding instructor for children with mental health issues and traumatic backgrounds. She was consistently amazed by the healing power of animal interactions and the resiliency of her students.
Eventually, she felt the need to expand her career horizons so, Mara enrolled at the Bancroft School of Massage Therapy in Worcester, where she completed both the human and small animal massage programs.

After working exclusively as a massage therapist for several years, Mara answered the call to seek further education and training once again. This led her to Denver and The Bel-Rea Institute for Animal Technology where she received her Associate's Degree and began working as a veterinary technician.  She is the owner of Petrissage Massage Therapy, Inc. in Denver, Colorado.

​Now, Mara is able to bring all of her experience together by splitting her time between veterinary nursing and running her animal and human massage business!

Mara shares her home with her husband and son and their furry family members, Kora- the black lab and Sonas- the mischievous Calico cat. Mara and her family enjoy taking advantage of all that Colorado has to offer from events and activities in Denver to exploring the gorgeous mountains and natural beauty throughout the state. 

In providing and teaching animal massage, Mara hopes to improve the quality of life for animals while helping to educate animal lovers and veterinary professionals about the benefits of massage.
