Touch of Tranquility's licensed massage therapist, Anji Cruz, irons out subcutaneous kinks during massages that can be scheduled seven days a week. Before each massage, Cruz slips out of the room, allowing clients to disrobe according to their comfort level and don a fresh sheet. During 60-minute sessions, the gentle effleurage and firmer petrissage strokes of the Swedish massage expedite circulation and mollify tense lower backs so that clients can stand up straight in good-posture-pride parades.
More therapeutic in nature, the deep-tissue massage spreads pressure over superficial muscles, deep tissues, and fascia to relieve chronic aches and pains. Inside the exposed-brick studio, hot, smooth stones nestle onto backs to target stress trigger points with the vigilance of heat-seeking missiles targeting the sun.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Getting Enough Sleep
Sleep—the smallest type of death—allows the body to recharge and gives nighttime burglars the opportunity to kiss your forehead as an apology for taking your things. Here’s a guide to getting the most out of your hours of rest:
Create a Sleep Pattern: The body needs regular, recognizable sleep patterns, such as sleeping for a half hour out of every hour, spending every other minute asleep, or only sleeping on your son’s birthday.
Minimize Distractions: Make sure your bedroom is dark and quiet before going to sleep. Every night, be sure to blow out the candles, turn off the radio, put a hood over the ambulance sirens, fire the sound-effects engineer, and lock the dog in your other family’s house.
Create a Comfortable Space: Every bed needs a nest of decorative pillows and warm, cozy blankets for the sleeper to apologize to and put on the floor before climbing onto their chiropractor-approved wooden sleeping pallet.
Prepare to Dream: Dreams are a way for your mind to put your parents' faces on different bodies without having to feel ashamed later. It’s important to give the mind plenty of fodder for dreams by looking at old photos and medical textbooks right before going to sleep.
Don’t Go to Bed Angry: This old adage reminds couples not to go to bed with a grudge against one another. As your spouse is falling asleep, whisper all of the things he or she did wrong that day into their ear, which could range from mispronouncing a foreign name to being bad at their chosen form of art. They will thank you for giving them something to work on tomorrow.
