Accidentally discovered during the boozy revelry of a Chinese pin factory’s New Year's party, acupuncture has since developed into both a potent alternative medicine and popular celebrity Jeopardy category. Today’s Groupon gives you a pain-free way to stay pain-free: for $40, you get two acupuncture treatments (a $145 value) at Long Acupuncture Studios, located northwest of Minneapolis in Maple Grove, and north in St. Anthony. Your Groupon is good for both locations.

Lindsay Long is a Northwestern Health Sciences University master's graduate, licensed acupuncturist, and practitioner of Chinese herbology—an experience that has given her exceptionally talented hands at straightening out the human body's muddled meridians. Acupuncture is a roughly 3,000-year-old practice that draws on the ancient concept of qi, the life force that flows through the body, and remains a vital part of healthcare in Japan, China, Vietnam, Korea, and other countries. It works by applying small, virtually painless needles to areas of the body where qi likes to hang out, stimulating proper energy flow and relieving impediments to good health. Long Acupuncture’s treatment includes an initial ailment-quashing session, a follow-up session, and a 10,000-mile transmission-fluid check-up.

Western medicine had long been unable to explain why pincushions never get sick until 2003, when the World Health Organization issued a review of clinical trials that suggested acupuncture may be effective treatment for a range of conditions including nausea, sprains, allergies, politician's wrist, and phantom centaur syndrome. Everyone only gets one of today's Groupon to Long Acupuncture Studios, but you can buy multiples as gifts, so you can finally get your stunt double’s back pain treated as recompense for all those times he made you look cool at the office and supermarket.
