Relaxation increases productivity, which is why yoga instructors often have multiple PhDs and have published at least one 2,000-page novel. Start on a path to prolific production with today's Groupon: for $45, you get a 30-minute hot-stone massage and an express facial at Linda Marie's Beauty Clinic in Stoney Creek (a $90.40 Value).

The professionals at Linda Marie's Beauty Clinic hone massage skills, studying skin science and brushing up on the latest industry techniques and products to provide clients with an educated spa experience. A massage therapist begins the body rejuvenation with a 30-minute hot-stone massage, during which heated rocks are placed on the back to cuddle with muscles until they are loose and to flirt with blood cells to increase circulation. Certified skincare specialists purify and hydrate pores with a 30-minute express facial, lathering specially formulated cleansers across foreheads, cheeks, noses, and chins to target issues such as acne or early signs of aging. An exfoliator then removes dirt and dead cells, revealing skin as smooth and refined as a bowling ball graduating from finishing school, before a facial massage exhilarates expressive features. The treatment is topped off with a hydrating mask, applied to restore moisture and alleviate environmental damage.
