$32 for a 60-Minute Massage at The Bannard Center ($85 Value)

When the body achieves relaxation, the mind is free to wander, which allows it to view the body from a distance and even decorate its snoozing face with markers. Play imaginary pranks on yourself with today’s Groupon: for $32, you get one 60-minute massage at The Bannard Center in Cary (an $85 value). The licensed therapists at The Bannard Center attend to patients with deep-delving massages in an office space recently renovated with hardwood floors and warm colors. Before hatching a plan to pry tension and apprehension from the patron’s spinal column, the patient and practitioner confer about specific problem areas and feasible massage-related solutions. During the massage , a certified specialist rubs clients’ muscles to release pent-up stress and loosen the gnarled knots of shoulder anxiety and misplanted back saplings. The therapist melts tension from sinews and muscle bands using a variety of techniques, easing the body into a state of heightened relaxation and mild enlightenment. If you decide to purchase additional treatment, you have the legal right to change your mind within three days and receive a refund.
