Mandi Dean

I’m Mandi, and my journey into the massage therapy field was inspired by a special horse named Mouse (PeptoMouse), whose spirit and life continue to motivate everything I do. She is the inspiration for Double M through and through!

Mouse was more than just a horse – she was my partner and friend. As a broodmare and performance horse, she had her fair share of challenges which required constant massage therapy sessions. It’s through our battles together that I saw first-hand the incredible impact that massage and other therapies had on her comfort, performance, and overall quality of life.

Mouse passed away in the winter of 2024, but her legacy lives on in my work. Her resilience and strength taught me the importance of taking care of our equine companions, especially when it comes to their well-being.

As for me, I’ve long since had a passion for horses. That passion continues through my family, and most especially my daughter. By choosing Double M you’re supporting the life and legacy of Mouse, and supporting our life’s passion for creating comfort for horses and humans alike.

Reach out with questions or to schedule. I’d love to hear from you!
