About

My name is Brandon Kelone, and I’m the owner of Acacia Fruit Wellness.

My journey into massage therapy and fitness wasn’t a straight path—it was shaped by years of exploration, both professionally and personally. After several years teaching at Northern Arizona University, I stepped away from academia to pursue something entirely different: walking the length of the United States. I completed the journey twice, covering more than 5,600 miles from Mexico to Canada. Those months on the trail gave me a profound appreciation for the human body, movement, recovery, and the role that physical health plays in living a fulfilling life.

That experience led me into the fitness industry, where I became an ACE Certified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor. Helping clients build strength and confidence was incredibly rewarding, but I found myself wanting to address the aches, injuries, and movement limitations that exercise alone couldn’t solve. That realization ultimately led me to massage therapy.

I studied Sports Massage at the Arizona School of Integrative Studies (ASIS) in Flagstaff and became a Licensed Massage Therapist in 2022. Since then, I’ve worked in sports massage, chiropractic, and spa settings, treating everyone from endurance athletes and golfers to active professionals and clients simply looking to move through life with less pain. Those diverse experiences helped shape a treatment style that blends clinical knowledge with a personalized, hands-on approach.

Today, I specialize in sports massage and therapeutic bodywork designed to reduce pain, improve mobility, accelerate recovery, and enhance performance. Whether you’re training for your next race, recovering from an injury, managing the physical demands of work, or simply looking to unwind, every session is tailored to your individual goals.

At Acacia Fruit Wellness, my mission is simple: to help people move better, recover faster, and feel their best—so they can continue doing the things they love.

Hello, I’m Naomi, and joined Acacia Fruit Wellness in the summer of 2025.

 

I’ve been practicing massage therapy for over eight years. I received my training at Brightwood College in Vista, California, where I developed a strong foundation in both the technical and intuitive aspects of bodywork.

 

I was drawn to massage therapy from a desire to help people feel better through a holistic approach—one that supports not just the physical body, but the overall balance and energy of each individual. Over the years, I’ve come to deeply value how bodywork can create meaningful shifts, not only in how someone feels physically, but in how they move, recover, and show up in their daily life.

 

My work incorporates a wide range of modalities, including trigger point therapy, prenatal massage, lymphatic drainage, sports therapy, craniosacral work, hot stone therapy, and cupping. This allows me to tailor each session to the specific needs of my clients, whether they’re seeking pain relief, recovery, relaxation, or support during times of physical change.

 

I approach every session with intention, presence, and a deep respect for the body’s natural ability to heal and regulate. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, restored, and more connected to your body—both during and after our work together.
