Massage, Massage with Dry-Brush Exfoliation, or Peppermint Spa Package at Agape Therapeutic Massage (Up to 56% Off)

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 06:00:53 +0000

Massage is a time-honored method of alleviating stress, as is the ancient art of crafting origami swans out of midterm exams. Ace relaxation with today's Groupon to Agape Therapeutic Massage, located inside True Skin Spa. Choose from the following options:

For $35, you get a 60-minute massage (an $80 value).
For $55, you get a 70- to 75-minute exfoliation package (a $125 value), which includes the following:
- Full-body dry-brush exfoliation treatment
- 60-minute massage
For $75, you get a 70- to 75-minute peppermint spa package (a $155 value), which includes the following:
- Peppermint foot retreat
- Aqua collagen eye treatment
- 60-minute massage

The seasoned sinew soothers at Agape Therapeutic Massage work to alleviate muscle aches and refresh dull, dry skin with exfoliation and massage services. During the 60-minute massage, recumbent clients stretch across heated tables as an experienced therapist works to straighten out rebellious muscles with firm strokes or a stern talking-to. Opt for the full-body exfoliation treatment, and the therapist will also scour skin with a dry brush to slough off dead skin cells, improve circulation, and cleanse the lymphatic system of toxins. Alternatively, a peppermint foot treatment soothes soles with a three-step process that exfoliates peds with a peppermint scrub, detoxifies and hydrates skin with a natural clay mask, and pampers digits with a peppermint foot balm to make shoe fillers as sweet and smooth as a milkshake armed with candy-themed pickup lines. The 70- to 75-minute session concludes with a collagen eye treatment, during which marine collagen surrounds ocular orbs to help renew and refresh the epidermis, working to hydrate, plump, and tighten skin.

$10 for $20 Worth of Pizza, Salads & Sandwiches at Wheat State Pizza in Derby

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 06:00:49 +0000

A cheese pizza is a blank canvas, just waiting to be decorated with pepperoni to symbolize life, onions to symbolize sorrow, and pineapple to symbolize fruit. Eat something meaningful with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of pizza, sandwiches, and salads at Wheat State Pizza.

Cooks at the family-owned Wheat State Pizza offer a whole-wheat crust, which they crown with savory sauces and a subset of 35 toppings. Eight pieces of jumbo chicken wings obviate the need for forks by diving directly into buckets of barbecue, spicy, teriyaki, or ranch sauce ($7.99), just as Olympic swimmers cut out the award ceremony middleman by diving into buckets of molten gold, silver, and bronze. Patrons can order white or wheat pizza dough in hand-tossed or thin-crust thicknesses, which receive a coat of one of 11 sauces such as cream cheese, red sauce, or taco sauce. One-topping pizzas can sport chicken, ricotta cheese, fresh basil, or avocados ($7.99 – $32.99) for flavor as customizable as a Mr. Potato Head that wears human or action figure clothes. Specialty pies meld flavors in both time-tested and inventive combinations, such as the buffalo pizza packed with mozzarella, chicken, and a cream cheese-buffalo sauce blend ($9.99 – $44.99), or the veggie dream, which unites pesto, spinach, portabella, and sundried tomatoes into a meatless culinary fiesta ($9.99 – $44.99). Lunchtime diners might fill up on a selection from the eatery’s sandwich roster ($6.99), which includes the barbecue brisket or Philly steak. A Kansas wheat mural adorns the restaurant walls and the underside of all Wheat State Pizza kitchen appliances.

$99 for a Deluxe Interior and Exterior Mobile Detailing Package for a Car or Small Truck from DugDug's Mobile Detailing ($200 Value)

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 06:00:54 +0000

Cars require occasional cleanings, unlike dirt collections or Teflon pants. Add shine to your auto with today's Groupon: for $99, you get a deluxe interior and exterior mobile detailing package for a car or small truck from DugDug's Mobile Detailing, servicing areas within a 25-mile radius of zip code 67210 (a $200 value).

The crews from DugDug's Mobile Detailing haul their own cleaning products to the customer’s location to scrub, shampoo, and wax cars to a spotless sheen. During the four- to six-hour deluxe interior and exterior detail, customers can lounge inside their homes, work in the office, or feed bars of soap to cursing lawn mowers as the techs outside dutifully groom cars with a rinseless hand wash. Wheels shake off their mud-caked coatings, tires find new shines, and windows regain their revelatory clarity. On the inside, vacuums scout out crumbs, and techs dress upholstery with cleansing shampoos applied by a hot-water extraction method that wrestles out deep filth. A clay-bar treatment nimbly plucks embedded dirt particles and self-replicating bumper stickers from the painted finish, and a protective coat of carnauba wax puts the finishing touches on the high-gloss shine.

$59 for a One-Night Stay for Two in a Studio Suite at Chase Suite Hotel Kansas City (Up to a $119 Value)

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 06:00:57 +0000

Apartment-Style Suites Minutes from Kansas City International Airport

Poised at the confluence of the Missouri and Kansas Rivers, Kansas City has long been a focal point of transportation and exploration, welcoming the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1804 as well as the first cross-Missouri railroad in 1869. Today, the bulk of long-distance travel centers on the Kansas City International Airport. Tucked 5 miles away from the airport, Chase Suite Hotel Kansas City offers convenient lodging before flights and shuttle service to and from the airport.

Leather furniture, full kitchens, and flickering gas fireplaces lend studio suites a cosmopolitan apartment feel. Evening receptions held Monday–Thursday are accompanied by hors d'oeuvres, draft beers, and house wines (up to two drinks per person). The next morning, a breakfast buffet includes fresh fruit and signature house-made muffins.

A complimentary shuttle whisks guests to and from the airport and to any restaurant or shop within a 5-mile radius of the hotel. With the included park and fly package, lodgers can leave their vehicles for up to 14 nights (additional $5/extra night) within guarded, onsite lots that protect cars from escaped monster trucks.

Kansas City: World-Class Museums in Neoclassical Structures

Less than a half hour from the hotel, central Kansas City is home to a handful of well-respected art and history museums. The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art comprises a vast, sculpture-studded lawn and a Beaux-Arts building with more than 33,000 artworks, including sculptures from the Ming dynasty. On the south end of downtown, the limestone obelisk of the Liberty Memorial soars 217 feet into the sky, with an observation deck overlooking the city. The National World War I Museum extends from the memorial’s base into underground exhibits, where audio performances of WWI-era journals accompany sobering trench recreations.

$25 for a Trigger-Point Massage-Therapy Class with Sandwiches for Two at Holmberg Wellness Group ($110 Value)

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 06:00:56 +0000

Without the loosening effects of massage, shoulders would stiffen into immobility and fall victim to freeloading parrots and the burden of carrying Earth's heavyset brother, Girth. Learn to pamper others' perches with today's Groupon: for $25, you get a trigger-point massage-therapy class package for two at Holmberg Wellness Group (a $110 value). Workshops take place from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays; additional weeknight classes will be added as needed. The package includes the following:

A one-hour class in trigger-point massage therapy for two (a $90 total value)
One tube of Biofreeze pain-relief gel (a $12 value)
Two sandwiches from Barn’ards (a $8 total value)

Trained staffers overseen by Doctor of Chiropractic Greg Holmberg teach groups of up to 16 students to self-treat neuromuscular pain in one-hour workshops on trigger-point massage at Holmberg Wellness Group. Trigger-point-massage practitioners apply pressure on specific areas of tender tissue to release constricted muscles and genies trapped in the tibia. In conjunction with regular massage techniques, the treatment can help muscles to reestablish healthful habits, slough off stress or chronic pain, and unknot themselves from swallowed Scrabble pieces. Students receive a tube of Biofreeze to aid pain relief and can also sate unrelated hunger aches with fresh sandwiches from Barn'ards after class concludes.

Or follow a more polychromatic path with the My Everything Valentine's Day bouquet, an unexpected marriage of deep-red roses and white Asiatic lilies ($29.99–$59.99). Red roses and pink lilies spring forth from a sculpted red vase in the Lasting Romance bouquet ($69.99–$94.99), and a spray of 12 long-stemmed roses ($49.99; $59.99 with vase) stands firmly on stems that measure around 16 inches without heels.
