Without a back, you'd never know which way was forward, making dramatic exits confusing and awkward. Reward your back for not being up front with today's Groupon: for $45, you get a one-hour therapeutic massage, a chiropractic exam, and, if necessary, an adjustment and x-rays from Dr. Bauer's Advanced Wellness (up to a $306 value).
Relieve your body of stress with a one-hour therapeutic massage (a $49 value) and preliminary chiropractic treatment from Doctor of Chiropractic Jason Bauer, who believes in making total health fully accessible to his clients—not only through his spine-stabilizing skills, but also through education and personal empowerment. Accordingly, this deal includes an examination with Dr. Bauer to discuss your acrimonious aches and persistent pains, getting to the root of your troubles rather than just the symptomatic weeds (a $99 value). This exam can encompass everything from nutrition intake and range of motion to postural habits and nervous-system function. After that, if determined necessary, Dr. Bauer will take x-rays to provide two views of trouble areas in your frame (a $99 value). You'll also receive a spinal adjustment, joining the approximately 90,000 other backbones that Dr. Bauer estimates he's adjusted in his career (a $59 value).
Conveniently located in Mission Valley, Dr. Bauer's modern office is heavy on personal attention and high-quality service. Whether you're sick or well, Dr. Bauer can help you find the healthier state of being known only to mountaintop meditators and cats with good posture.

Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Involuntary Actions
Although the human body can perform thousands of voluntary motions (dunking a basketball, waving goodbye to a childhood, throwing a bicycle), it also constantly carries out many involuntary activities. Here's a look at what your body is doing without your permission:
Breathing: Without your knowledge or consent, your brain orders your lungs to capture and release air in order to satiate the respiratory system's insatiable hunger for delicious oxygen. This inefficient instinct traps the helpful breathing-air for only a few seconds before releasing it, almost completely robbing your body of necessary life-particles. To beat the system, you'll want to "hold your breath" inside your body for as long as possible all the time.
Thinking: Scientists call the brain "the king of the body," and rightfully so, since it operates almost wholly independently from the rest of your body. Most people would choose to save their thoughts for times when they really need them, yet the human brain produces concerns, worries, anxieties, and colorful recollections (both painful and saddening) on its own. Even sleeping, which turns off the other functions of your body, does not stop your brain from creating inescapable "night thoughts," or dreams.
Loving: Love is a heightened state of emotions characterized by intense interpersonal feelings. This unwelcome state of overcaring is controlled involuntarily by the body's most deceitful organ—the heart. Your heart will force you to feel love even toward those who do not deserve it, such as second-born offspring and household pets, neither of whom is mentally capable of reciprocating it. To find a safe outlet for your love, watch as much TV as possible—your heart sees no difference between its rapidly firing electrons and real life.
