In the future, back pain will be relieved with an iPhone app that also makes Super Mario Brothers sounds whenever you run and jump. But for now, today's Groupon will have to suffice. For $59, you get a detoxifying foot bath, chiropractic exam, muscle activation treatment, and 20-minute therapeutic massage from Dr. Matt's Wellness Center (a $287 value) in Plano.
Your Wellness Center session begins with Dr. Matt Kulafofski's highly trained staff immersing your feet in a warm blend of detoxifying liquid that sucks out poisons, pollutants, and all that Blue #5 you absorbed stomping blue raspberries at the candy factory. Next, you'll receive a comprehensive chiropractic exam, during which Dr. Matt will evaluate your body's overall biomechanical well-being and pinpoint any concerns or persistent pain. He'll address these issues with Muscle Activation Technique, which uses electric pulses to awaken and stabilize underused muscle groups, helping to calibrate the body, relieve tightness, and untie the stubborn knots in your back and shoes. A 20-minute therapeutic massage caps the session by flushing tension and fatigue from your muscles and improving the vascular flow throughout your entire body.
Dr. Matt is a graduate of the National College of Chiropractic (now the National University of Health Sciences) and specializes in relieving back pain and stiffness. His discipline of chiropracty is based on a holistic approach to the workings of the human body and an understanding of how the body's muscles, tendons, joints, and nerves interact with and influence one another. Chiropractic treatment can safely restore health and eliminate pain for anyone, no matter their occupation or level of activity. Athletes can recover more quickly from injuries and unlock their body's fullest potential, while desk jockeys can bounce back from that terrible chair-racing crash and type upwards of 1,000 words a minute.

Groupon Says
Friendly Doctors
Dr. Matt Kulafofski named his clinic after his first name to foster a sense of friendship and closeness with his clients, but it is possible for a doctor to try too hard to ingratiate him or herself into your life. Here's how you can tell if your doctor is getting too close:
The Situation: Your doctor follows you home at night and sleeps on your doorstep
Too Close?: No, all good doctors should perform house calls, not to mention politely refrain from entering your home unless invited. You'll be glad the doc is on your doorstep when you wake in the middle of the night suffering from missing arms syndrome.
The Situation: While you are disrobed during your check-up, your doctor does a number of "high-five" tests
Too Close?: No, your doctor is merely doing a fun test of your reflexes to determine if you can successfully slap his hand up high, on the side, and down low or if you are "too slow." Either way, take him up on his offer to watch him grill up some of his famous spicy bacon this weekend.
The Situation: The good doctor shines a light in your ear for "medical purposes"
Too Close?: You bet! Your doctor is most likely an escaped criminal looking to see if your ear joints are a match for his own so that he can steal your face during the next thunderstorm and run off to Jamaica.
