Sinew soothers enhance strokes by blanketing muscles with plant-extracted essential oils, which work by absorbing into the skin, stimulating the brain via inhalation, and cloaking the body’s natural pizza scent. The pleasing aromas claim to deliver benefits including calming the nervous system, improving mood, and easing pain. During the reflexology portion—a practice dating back to before 2000 BC—therapists simulate nerve endings on the feet to target corresponding areas of the body, thereby relieving maladies such as stiff necks or bed head.

Today’s Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of Indian and traditional pub fusion fare at Rowan’s Roof.

Rowan’s Roof’s chefs marry traditional pub fare with Indian-influenced recipes to curate a diverse menu that welcomes group sharing and solo culinary endeavours. Tongues herd handmade vegetable samosas with tamarind sauce ($7) or coax Cajun or tandoori halibut sandwiches ($14) out from under a bed of yam fries by threatening them with a broom. Madras vegetable curry gathers an ensemble of broccoli, carrot, and mushrooms to steam over basmati rice and naan ($12). Chefs prepare 6-ounce new york strip loin steak to strut from the kitchen with an entourage of garlic prawns and roasted potatoes ($17), while ciders ($4.50) expedite bites down throats, much like a dollar coin taped to a postage stamp.

Every two weeks on the second and last Thursdays of each month, diners pair plates with stand-up comedy routines, submitting a donation for admission. For no additional fee, guests gather on Wednesday nights to tame twitching ears with live music and ride pentatonic scales to the Just Jazz Trio on Fridays. Rowan’s Roof maintains a comfortable perch on a second floor, high above passing traffic and pedestrians breaking into sudden musical numbers.

  • For $89, you get a laser rejuvenating facial treatment (a $178 value).
  • For $250, you get three laser rejuvenating facial treatments (a $534 value).

At Heavenly Soul, a team of aestheticians and laser technicians strive to reinvigorate faces by performing diamond microdermabrasions and laser rejuvenating treatments. During the diamond microdermabrasion, skin specialists glide a diamond-tipped wand over facial contours, exfoliating the outermost layer of skin to scuttle dull cells and stubborn clown makeup. The abrasive action helps trigger cellular regeneration, which may result in tighter, smoother skin and diminished fine lines, scars, and pigmentation. Technicians wield the Mozero EVO 808 laser system during the laser rejuvenating treatment, pulsing energy into facades. As the waves help remodel epidermises, they may lessen the appearance of acne, broken capillaries, and benign brown spots resembling caribou antlers. Heavenly Soul claims most patients experience little to no downtime after the procedure.

  • For $74, you get an Introduction to Mounted Combat class at Red Colt Equestrian Farm Co-op in Richmond (a $149 value).

Academie Duello keeps medieval and renaissance combat skills thriving within a 5,000-square-foot facility dedicated to safe swordplay and theatrical-fighting skills. Two-hour Beginner Archery classes reveal the old world’s secrets of recurve-bow mastery with ample doses of archery vocabulary and history. Swashbuckling instructors acquaint junior archers with bow types and historic and modern archery kits before facilitating hands-on practice. After a primer, students sling arrows at targets to practice learned skills such as proper stance, the Y grip, and the three-finger draw-and-release used for hundreds of years by bowmen to accomplish reliable bull’s-eyes and to punish apples loitering above others’ heads.

The Introduction to Mounted Combat class draws inspiration from the picturesque, horse-trodden surroundings of Red Colt Equestrian Farm. During five hours of hands-on instruction, chivalrous instructors explain essential sword- and spear-work, protecting one’s horse, and tactics of throwing and “counterthrowing” advancing opponents, a move first appropriated from renaissance roller derbies. Small classes of up to 12 students are introduced to sword skills on the ground before learning them from falsemount, while horse handling and riding fundamentals are also rehearsed. Intro class can serve as a primer for the Cavaliere program, which includes actual horseback combat and intramural human-shetland-pony little-league outings.
