I was traveling and booked a shiatsu massage with Maelon. I was feeling a bit frazzled that morning from rushing around and being busy with the conference I was attending. Walking into Maelon's room was instant peace and comfort. The shiatsu massage was unlike anything I had before and it seemed like a full mind and body reset. I wish Tucson was my home rather than just a place I visit occasionally—I would be seeing Maelon all the time! Maelon has been practicing holistic massage and skincare for over two decades.
