Today’s GrouponLive deal: for $15, you get two reserved grandstand tickets to the Edmonton Capitals baseball game against the Calgary Vipers on Thursday, August 25, at 7 p.m. at Telus Field (up to a $30 value, including GST). Seats are located in sections C and H.

The Edmonton Capitals, an independent pro team in the new North American Baseball League, chase the North Division title with speedy sprints, awe-inspiring pitches, and backwind-generating swings. Grouponites get to cheer on the Caps from reserved grandstand seats, where they can bring along their own mitts to catch pop flies and oversized mousetraps. In addition to showcasing some of baseball’s most promising talent, this season’s roster includes stars from the big leagues such as former Florida Marlins outfielder Todd Linden. Sporting a .263 average over 70 games, right fielder Tom Collaro has posted 49 RBIs and sent 12 homers to the moon via Pony Express, and former Anaheim Angels pitcher Lou Pote has fanned 90 batters over 85 innings with lightning-speed fastballs. A Thirsty Thursday promotion presented in part by Hudsons Canadian Tap House will keep throats primed for screaming with $3 beers, not included with this Groupon.

Nicknamed the “Phone Booth,” Telus Field welcomes visitors with 10,000 seats. The 16-year-old park entices sluggers with a 34-foot centre-field wall and lures local cows with a lush natural-grass outfield.

Dr. Ronald Latch and the crew at Westmount Chiropractic and Massage Clinic have realigned clients’ inner frameworks for more than 20 years. Boasting hands that could tame a puma, Westmount’s registered massage therapists melt away tension with choice of multiple massage techniques, excluding hot stone massage. The therapeutic massage breaks up scarring and fibrosis in the myofascial layers, tending to generalized tissue adhesions or focusing on spots injured from playing sports or extreme backgammon. For comprehensive calming, therapists administer soothing strokes while singing whale songs during the relaxation massage. Alternative approaches include reflexology, which stimulates pressure points on the hands and feet that correspond to the rest of the body.

The Yoga Loft

http://www.theyogaloft.com/

Today’s Groupon to The Yoga Loft in Old Strathcona. Choose between the following options:

For $29, you get a five-class punch card (an $84 value).
For $39, you get one month of unlimited yoga classes (up to a $136.50 value).
The Yoga Loft’s vetted instructors lead all levels of practitioners through Sattva and Ashtanga classes at its eco-friendly studio. Sattva classes explore Hatha yoga, flowing through postural sequences and breathing techniques that encourage the connection of mind and body. Ashtanga synchronizes breath and movement to specific rhythms, increasing flexibility and strength to improve your range of motion, balance, and posture, all vital to moving up in the corporate world, seeing over the steering wheel, and slicing your morning bagel. The deep relaxation classes focus on longer holds, deeper postures, and slower paces, opening the hips, shoulders, and spine to enhance range of motion and to release stress to go follow its dream of working on an Alaskan crab boat. Sessions last 45–90 minutes and run all week, comprising a class schedule starting as early as 6:15 a.m. and ending as late as 9 p.m. Before most Sattva classes, the studio is open for self-guided meditation and mime monologue rehearsals.

Classes are held in The Yoga Loft’s eco-friendly studio, kept tidy by nontoxic cleaning products and enlivened by natural light spilling onto the hardwood floor and golden walls coloured by low VOC paints. No reservations are necessary, though participants should arrive 15 minutes before classes start with comfortable, movement-friendly, and perfume-free attire (changing rooms are available on-site). Mat rentals are available for $1, and the studio dispenses free water to fill students’ bottles and well buckets.

Although Yoga Loft offers their own discount on unlimited month classes when planning on renewing from month to month, this Groupon still represents the best value.

Diners can opt to devour their grilled, steamed, or broiled specialties on the Café’s patio or safely avoid projectile computer monitors within the dining room’s confines.

True Balance

http://mytruebalance.ca/

Today’s Groupon to True Balance in Sherwood Park. Choose from the following options:

• For $99, you get three laser hair removal sessions on small skin areas (up to a $630 value, including HST).
• For $199, you get three laser hair removal sessions on medium skin areas (up to a $750 value).
• For $299, you get three laser hair removal sessions on large skin areas (up to a $1050 value).

A medical grade aesthetics clinic, True Balance employs a certified staff of experienced practitioners who utilize advanced laser technology to achieve long-term hair removal. To ensure a personalized treatment, clients consult and synchronize their wardrobe with a laser guru, who can then target unwanted skin forests on small areas like the underarms ($125/session), abdomen, upper lip, hands, feet, ears ($50/session), sideburns, chin, forehead, eyebrows, cheeks, or two inches of the bikini line ($200/session). Lasers can expunge follicles on medium-sized areas like the abdomen, forearm, upper arm, Brazilian line, buttocks, inner thigh, neck and shoulders; or can smooth skin along large body sections like the chest, back, lower leg, and upper leg. During the treatment, a triple tag team of Light Sheer Diode, IPL, and Palomar lasers flash rapid pulses of light that travel into each hair’s pigment. The generated heat warms each follicle and destroys it, preventing it from growing future hair and leaving skin smooth. Like spray-painting an elephant, duration of each session will vary depending on the size of the area being treated. True Balance recommends four to eight sessions for the best results.
