Modern massage therapy is much gentler than its prehistoric incarnation, which was known only as the “back punch” and served primarily to incapacitate T. Rexes. Indulge in muscle-melting innovation with today’s Groupon to Modern Elegance Salon. Choose from the following options:

• For $30, you get a 60-minute Swedish massage (a $60 value).
• For $30, you get a 60-minute deep-tissue massage (a $60 value).
• For $30, you get a 60-minute athletic massage (a $60 value).<p>

Nestled amid black-curtained confines strewn with chandeliers, Modern Elegance Salon customizes each of its soul- and sinew-soothing massages to clients’ corporeal uniforms and therapeutic needs. Surrender sore necks and backs to a medley of massage modalities, including the calming glides and the rhythmic kneads central to Swedish massage techniques. Alternatively, guests can purge aches and anxiety from manifold layers of musculature during deep-tissue kneadings, which deploy gradual, pressure-heavy strokes to alleviate chronic tension and shepherd troubled minds to wellness’s backyard barbecue. Adept at fostering flexibility and preventing muscle injuries, athletic massages can aid overworked ligaments before or after strenuous sporting events or ill-fated bouts of dumpster diving.
