Elementary school taught us that the backbone is connected to the neck bone, but it neglected to inform us that both are connected to our ability to cry. Get your head on straight with today's Groupon: for $45, you get a chiropractic consultation and exam with x-rays (a $300 value), plus a 30-minute deep tissue massage (a $50 value), at Advanced Spine & Wellness Center in Rockville (a $350 total value). This Groupon expires four months from today. Following the rigorous and systematic practices of the chiropractic BioPhysics program, Doctors of Chiropractic Brian Paris and Craig Stiritz look past symptom relief and aim for the root causes of spinal and muscular strife. Patients are warmly welcomed into a comfortable, carpeted office, where the clinic's expert posture-perkers work with them to uncover the causes of ailments ranging from nerve pain to headaches and the phenomenon of sans-serif spinal columns. After an in-depth exam and x-rays, Groupon customers come in for a follow-up appointment at no cost to discuss results and possible courses of action.
Based on the newly mapped musculature, a 30-minute deep-tissue massage zeroes in on the agitating areas, deftly freeing fibers from their tightly wound overlords and liberating limbs for unmitigated celebratory fist pumping.

Advanced Spine & Wellness Center
When Brian Paris received chiropractic care for a football injury at the age of 10, he wasn’t just improving his health, but determining his career path as well. He might have found his way into health care regardless—one of his brothers is a medical doctor and the other a chiropractor, and Dr. Paris has a passion for maintaining peak athletic performance. The former all-state lacrosse player went on to earn his doctor of chiropractic degree and become certified in both neuromuscular therapy and chiropractic biophysics, a science-based chiropractic method that includes joint and postural adjustments, traction, and spinal exercise.
Today, Dr. Paris practices at Advanced Spine & Wellness Center to help others heal from injuries and lead more active lives. Together with fellow chiropractor Mike Kraft and owner and alternative-medicine specialist Andrew Bloch, Dr. Paris takes a multifaceted approach to wellness. Dr. Paris uses his expertise as a distinguished fellow of CBP to align the spine, and Bloch calls upon his training as a physical therapist and acupuncturist to relieve pain. The combination appears to be effective: high-performance athletes, including former professional football players, dancers, and professional arm wrestlers, have praised the center's team.
