Before the advent of massage therapy, the sore and stressed outfitted themselves in tree bark and stood in the woods, waiting for a woodpecker to hammer out their back knots. Marvel at present-day methods with today’s Groupon: for $25, you get an hour-long massage (a $50 value) at Massage Time on Fairview Avenue.

Massage Time is staffed by a group of experienced and licensed muscle molders that offer a vast variety of massage services. Each hour-long massage will be tailored to suit individual needs. Dissolve pockets of pressure like a piñata doused in battery acid with a deep- tissue, trigger-point, myofascial-release, or sports massage. Shoes will be flung at living-room TVs with less frequency after the helpful intervention of a stress-relief massage. Part the pea soup with a moment of clarity that will live beyond each visit to Massage Time. Use your newfound clearheadedness and rubberized being to achieve higher productivity, contagiously relax those around you, or finally beat Galaga.

This Groupon is valid for new clients only, and it is not valid with specials. Call to schedule your appointment.
