Spending a day at a spa is a tranquil experience surpassed only by swimming in a pool filled with mashed potatoes or having a hand model slap you to sleep. Ride the gravy train with today's Groupon: for $99, you get a 50-minute massage (an $85 value), a facial (a $95 value), and a microdermabrasion (a $125 value) at Sanda Gané European Day Spa in Wellington (a $305 total value).

The beauty curators at Sanda Gané address health, beauty, and wellness with services that maintain the both skin and muscles. During the Body Melting massage, therapists approach each guest differently, adapting the treatment to each client’s specific pain, stress, or second pair of arms. The 30-minute European facial attends to outward appearances by exporting dirt and oils, and flushing out pores with a deep cleanse, exfoliation, and extraction before calming exhilarated skin with a softening mask and facial massage. Well-traveled skin gets an anti-aging boost from a 30-minute Swiss dermabrasion, an add-on treatment that amplifies the European facial with deep resurfacing to buff away fine lines and wrinkles, and stimulates collagen and rubber-band production to increase skin's elasticity.
