Like a potato, if the human body is not properly mashed and moisturized, it will never be used for anything more than a science project battery. Make sure your body is properly fluffed and buttered with today’s soothing Groupon: for $42, you’ll get one of five one-hour massage treatments at Mezz Spa in Alpharetta (up to a $100 value).

The experienced therapists at Mezz will de-stress your mind and release tension from your body so that it can pursue its long-held dreams of keeping tightropes taut. Choose one of the following massage modalities:

• Swedish: The most popular type of massage. Melt your muscles like beeswax, erase tension, improve blood flow, and awaken the lymphatic system ($80).
• Reflexology Massage: The average person takes 3,000 to 5,000 steps a day. De-stress your soles with this foot-focused treatment designed to ease pain and encourage relaxation. After 30 minutes of sole-stimulation, your therapist will extend the boons of massage to the rest of the corporeal form with 30 minutes of Swedish massage ($100).
• Prenatal Massage: Massage away the back pain that stems from carrying around a person in your body ($90).
• Aromatherapy: Combining massage techniques with essential oils such as lavender, grapefruit, eucalyptus, citrus, and ginger, aromatherapy stimulates the mind through olfactory mood-boosters, deepening the relaxing effects of the massage and fostering a sense of well-being and dormant super powers ($85).
• Indo-Asian Hot Stone Massage: A massage therapist strategically places gently warmed smooth stones on the body to encourage blood-flow and bring muscles to tension-exorcizing temperature. The therapist will rub your muscles with the warmed stones for a tranquil experience akin to living life as a worry-free riverbed ($100).

No matter which of your various body parts is threatening to strike, Mezz Spa has a weapon of mass de-stression to fit your need. Call to schedule, for more information, or to giggle into the phone and then hang up.
