Sequestered near Mint Hill in a refined building on peaceful, bucolic grounds, Ricci Wellness House’s three-part menu invites guests to submit to a choice of relaxing, detoxing, or energizing services in a combination European spa retreat and tea lounge atmosphere. Gentle-touch Swedish massages and collagen-boosting facials recline on the relaxation menu, and the detoxification menu stocks moisture-rich anti-aging facials and firm-touch deep-tissue massages that can flush lymph nodes more quickly than grazing in a field of wheatgrass. Systems shift into high gear with the energizing menu's mixed pressure sports tonic massages and rejuvenating facials, targeted at wrinkles and blemishes. During each spa session, patrons lounge on Egyptian cotton spreads in plush Italian robes, sipping free organic herbal teas crafted to complement the mood of their treatments. Free WiFi streams through a waiting room iPad, and the house’s by-request Mercedes Benz shuttle service ensure that patrons don't have to scooch home on hijacked massage tables.
Though Ricci Wellness House sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

The Groupon Guide to: Writing an Urban Legend
Everyone secretly wants to believe in scary stories that might be true. Indulge your friends' gullibility with these tips to crafting the perfect urban legend:
• Make sure the story takes place somewhere nearby, on a similar night—ideally exactly 100 years ago to the night. Or on the devil’s birthday.
• Always include an animal that turns out to be a different animal or an animal where one does not belong—like a dog that is actually a rat, or an alligator in the bathroom of the Museum of Alligator Safety.
• Tweak the details—it's only a few letters’ difference to change "gardener" to "murderer," and only a small white lie to change "was valued by the community" to "possessed double hook hands and a thirst for marrow."
• Always carry "proof"—this can be a monster's tooth carved from soap, a faded newspaper article created in Photoshop, or a scrap of the victim's clothing that is actually just a scrap of clothing you ripped off a terrified hiker you chased through the woods.
