LOOMALIKULT BRAND AND MY STORY
ABOUT
About Me
Hello! I’m Marii Telliskivi. I’m an animal lover, a practitioner and a lifelong learner. Animals have always been at the centre of my life, especially horses and dogs. My journey toward supporting their wellbeing began in childhood, long before any certificates or formal training.
I completed my animal massage studies at the College of Applied Massage and Therapy and received my professional certification from the Estonian Masseurs’ Association, which recognises the competence of a professional massage therapist at a national level. I also hold a bachelor’s degree in Biology and Biodiversity Conservation from the University of Tartu. I am currently studying veterinary medicine at the Estonian University of Life Sciences, which allows me to look at each animal as a whole, combining scientific understanding with practical experience.
What is the reason behind creating LOOMALIKULT?
LOOMALIKULT was created from a wish to offer animal owners in Estonia a trustworthy and high‑quality animal massage service.
I wanted to build something that allows me to help animals already alongside my studies and to support their wellbeing even before they ever become patients.
Through massage I can connect the knowledge I gain at university with real hands‑on practice. It is not only about working with the body but about working together with the animal and their person. I want to offer support and clarity to both sides.
Every session is a step toward better connection and cooperation.
Who are LOOMALIKULT services for?
I am qualified to provide massage sessions for both horses and dogs. In my work I mainly focus on horses, as I chose to specialise in equine massage during the final stage of my training. At the same time I continue to expand my knowledge in the wellbeing and therapy of both horses and dogs, so when needed I am happy to support dogs as well.
I work mostly in Tallinn and Tartu, but during summer you can often find me in Pärnu and Saaremaa. And if you need me somewhere else in Estonia, we will find a way to make it happen.
What I Believe In and How I Work
LOOMALIKULT VALUES
01
Cooperation with the animal
You and your animal are a team. My role is to support that connection, not replace it.
02
Education and awareness
Learning never ends, not for me and not for the animal owner. The more we understand, the better we can help.
03
Calmness and trust
I work calmly and attentively. The animal needs to feel safe.
04
Care
Every animal and their person deserves time, presence and genuine attention.
05
Consistency
Lasting change does not happen in one session. I value long‑term cooperation.
What sets me apart from other practitioners?
My work does not end when the massage session is over. Every animal is like a story that develops over time, which is why I create a summary for each client, share recommendations and keep an eye on how things continue to change.
Massage is not an isolated service for me but a part of a bigger whole. It supports my veterinary studies and at the same time my studies enrich my practice. Thanks to this connection between the two worlds, I can understand the animal on a deeper level, seeing their body, movement and needs through both experience and knowledge.
My education and background
I graduated from the University of Tartu with a bachelor’s degree in Biology, and I am currently studying veterinary medicine at the Estonian University of Life Sciences with the goal of becoming a veterinarian (DVM).
I have also completed animal massage training and hold a professional certification in this field.
I have taken part in entrepreneurship and finance courses that gave me the confidence and knowledge to bring Loomalikult to life.
