A massage, like a first date, often takes place at a candlelit table but is less likely to get awkward when you mention how you strained your back lifting a statue of Boba Fett. Come clean about embarrassing aches with today’s Groupon: for $30, you get a one-hour Swedish, deep-tissue, or relaxation massage from therapist Angela Thomas at Avail Therapies in Murfreesboro (a $60 value).

Avail Therapies massage master Angela Thomas communicates with patients to pinpoint muscle knots and pressure points during massages of various styles. During a deep-tissue massage, patrons lounge atop a padded massage chair as Angela targets pains caused by repetitive motions, misalignment, and mammoth-hunting injuries remembered from past lives. For maximum serenity, patrons can opt for a Swedish massage, during which circular strokes, kneading, and light percussive blows aim to enhance mental clarity and flexibility. Alternatively, a relaxation massage lets customers pick and choose methods to release muscles’ accumulated aches, pains, and angst about bodybuilding-competition results.
