Massage treats pain by manipulating muscles and convincing ligaments to stop practicing krav maga moves on each other. Cease musculoskeletal sparring with today's Groupon: for $29, you get a pain consultation and a one-hour massage from New Health Centers (a $164 value). Choose from 15 Chicagoland locations.

New Health Centers's doctors investigate the causes of pain and aim to soothe it naturally with a 60-minute therapeutic massage. During a 10- to 20-minute initial consultation, chiropractors delve into patients' health histories to see when aches first appeared and how long they've been impeding daily activities such as walking, restful sleeping, and spirited air-guitar playing. Palpation and other diagnostic measures seek out the root source of each individual's hurtful symptoms during a comprehensive evaluation. With this newly gleaned information, the massage therapist, under the doctor's direction, artfully kneads muscles and joints in an attempt to exorcise pain without turning to drugs, surgery, or prescription lollipops.
