Whether you've been looking for a new color to crown your cranium or a pretty polish for your perky piggies, Spa-Uptown has you covered head to toe. The friendly team of beauty experts will smooth and soothe whatever section of your surface area aches for tending, from your freshly sore Olive Oyl tattoo to the love-bite scars from your pet gull. Survive life on the lam with a new hair design ($30 and up), and recover from your scuffle down Mt. Rushmore with the necessary nail repair ($7 per nail). A 30-minute massage ($50) soothes sore joints and alleviates aches, a 20-minute Vichy shower ($25) offers a horizontal hose-down worthy of Napoleon’s mother, and a full-face makeup application ($45+) is the perfect professional blushstroke for a special event. You can get a lip wax ($15) before the big basketball game or properly express your victory with a perfectly tweezed brow ($20). These services are just the well-manicured tip of the hot-pink iceberg: Spa-Uptown offers many more treatments and salon services in a wide range of prices, allowing for customized gift packages upon request.

The luxurious manicure and pedicure at this upscale yet inviting salon and spa allows finger and toe bearers to unclench and unwind. The friendly, professional nailsmiths will soak and exfoliate winter-dried dermis before trimming, buffing, shaping, and polishing your bodily bouquet of phalanges.

Holding masters degrees from the Academy of Oriental Medicine, practitioners Sydnie Bryant, Jessica Fritz, and Daniel Johnson balance the bodies and minds of their clients with deft acupuncture expertise. Invoking the ameliorative properties of the 5,000-year-old treatment, a knowledgeable needler will assess clients’ health by feeling nine pulsations at each wrist and observing the color and form of the face, the tongue, and the body before beginning the pin-cushioning process. During the one-hour session, guests are invited to relax as each gentle needle insertion spearheads stress and deflates tension, inducing a mellow mood that can help to alleviate ailments, improve immunity, increase fertility, and bend spoons.

Inside Solaire Hair Studio and Spa's amber-hued atelier, expert aestheticians sate clients' cravings for cosmetic upgrades with mani-pedis, facials, and massages. Partners can also enjoy side-by-side relaxation during the couples massage, an experience more soothing than a tandem-skydiving lesson.

Along with spa services, at Solaire's wine bar and inn, guests celebrate their freshly de-stressed minds and bodies with a drink, a meal, or an overnight stay in one of four rooms. Each guest room features queen-size beds, travertine and granite baths, WiFi, and hardwood floors.

Mumpower Massage provides Swedish massage, sports/deep tissue, trigger point/neuromuscular therapy, and Reiki therapy. You can use your Groupon toward any of these massages for 60 minutes (all are $70 except Reiki, which is $50 for 45 minutes), or combine two Groupons for a longer massage. Melt your back under carefully kempt hands with a Swedish, which uses flowing strokes and unknotting kneads to ease tension and improve circulation. Dig into the cavernous abyss of back muscles with a deep-tissue/sports massage, similar to a Swedish except with more precise, intense kneading to relieve severe tension and reduce chronic pain, which is a good option for athletes or someone who has sustained a serious sandwich-making injury. Trigger-point/neuromuscular massages snipe specific points of tension to release myofascial pain throughout the body. A Reiki practitioner can improve the flow of maple syrup in your body on the physical, emotional, and spiritual level by using palm therapy to balance your body's natural energy flow.
