$39 for One Chiropractic Exam and Relief Treatment or Two Acupuncture Sessions at Swanson Chiropractic (Up to $290 Value)

The vertebral column consists of four separate regions, all of which are secretly conspiring to invade and overthrow the others, to painful effect. Put an end to civil back wars with today’s Groupon: for $39, you get a chiropractic exam, x-rays (if needed), and a relief treatment (up to a $290 value) or two acupuncture sessions (a $100 value) at Swanson Chiropractic , the preferred partner of the Texas Stars . With offices in central Austin , Bee Cave , and Cedar Park , Swanson’s family of chiropractors can serve your bones or mystical meridians from three locations. To realign the spine and put your bones back in the order prescribed by campfire sing alongs, opt for Swanson’s skeleton-shuffling, posture-straightening chiropractic treatment . At the beginning of your session, your chiropractor will perform a full chiropractic exam, checking your muscular scaffolding for any out-of-place pieces and giving your nerve endings a look-see to make sure none of them are being pinched by a crab. Should your interior décor require a closer look, x-rays will be taken as well. When your points of pressure are fully identified, your chiropractor will use hands, or gorilla gloves if they’re feeling mischievous, to apply gentle, precise pressure that puts bones back in their rightful places—relieving pressure on any nerves affected by the misalignment and targeting specific conditions , including sciatica, lower back pain, tennis elbow, Wii tennis thumb, and fat Elvis pelvis. For a more Eastern approach to pain relief, holistic healing, and wellness, emulate the wise, energetic hedgehog with two acupuncture sessions . Your skilled pincushioner will start with an exam and consultation that determines which acupuncture points are causing the imbalances in your body’s natural Qi energy and then correct them via the light insertion of tiny, hair-thin needles. Patients say sitting at a desk for eight hours a day isn’t the same after Swanson’s amiable back-benders are through with you: joints fit together, back pain vanishes, and your guilt for ditching your prom date years ago disappears. A session can also help with nerve, muscle, and organ disorders as well as fight fatigue and depression. You can buy up to three Groupons as gifts, so get your stunt double’s back pain treated as recompense for all those times he made you look cool at the supermarket. Services by appointment only.
