Byward Market – Parliament Hill
424 – B Queen St. Ottawa, Ontario

Pamper paws with today’s Groupon to NewU Body Bar. Choose between the following options:

  • For $65, you get a spa pedicure (a $50 value) and an Éminence organic facial (an $80 value) (a $130 total value).
  • For $99, you get two Diamond Medilift treatments on one area of the body (a $300 value).

NewU Body Bar’s skilled staff revitalizes bodies during indulgent spa services such as pedicures, organic facials, and non-invasive, non-surgical Medilift sessions. Feet soak in sea salts before aestheticians trim, file, and smooth away keratin pads with a gentle care most people reserve for lonely security guards. Calluses are buffed away, a body polish exfoliates dry skin, and a massage helps soften stiff muscles. Toes walk away from the one-hour pedicure coated in the customer’s choice of vibrant polishes. During facials, skin bathes in a blend of detoxifying Éminence organic herbal cleansers, toners, and exfoliants which include fruits and minerals imported from Hungary. Finally, aestheticians consult a ouija board to determine each client’s skin type and then refresh epidermises with a custom mask.

Meanwhile, Diamond Medilift machines use safe electrical wavelengths to stimulate the body’s natural currents, intended to cause facial and body muscles to lift and tone. Each 45-minute session can simulate more effectively than 2,000 sit-ups, help burn fat, and increase lymphatic drainage. Sessions can be done twice a week and NewU Body Bar recommends 12–24 treatments for optimal results. In between sessions, clients can lounge on white leather couches lining the spa’s stone walls, watch the flat screen TV that hangs over the marble-topped nail bar, or pretend to be mannequins behind the storefront’s windows.

Odyssey Theatre

2 Daly Ave. Ottawa, Ontario

With today’s Groupon to Odyssey Theatre, performing outdoors in Strathcona Park, you can choose between the following options:

  • For $24, you get two tickets to The Fan (a $48 value).
  • For $39, you get two tickets to The Fan, plus two adult and two kids’ tickets to The Flying Canoe, presented by Rag & Bone Puppet Theatre (a $78 value).

The Fan runs July 21–August 21, Tuesday–Sunday at 8 p.m., with Saturday and Sunday matinees at 3 p.m. The Flying Canoe is a limited engagement playing Wednesdays July 27, August 3, August 10, and August 17 at 1 p.m. General-admission bleacher seating begins 30 minutes before each show.

Celebrating 25 years of outdoor theatre in Strathcona Park, Odyssey Theatre explores human existence through masks, intense physicality, vibrant costuming, and by weaving text with music, dance, and fairground arts. Continuing its international repertoire of award-winning productions, Odyssey produces Italian playwright Carlo Goldoni’s The Fan, a comedy that lifts the veneer off of small-town life and plunges its characters into gossip, misconceptions, fisticuffs, and heated arguments about axial versus propeller fans. Juxtaposed against this raucousness is Rag & Bone Puppet Theatre’s The Flying Canoe, rooted in the French Canadian story written in 1900 by Honoré Beaugrand. Magical creatures, including a talking cat and a bear in a canoe who longs to own a kayak, blend French and English, early film footage, folksongs, and dance to spin the myths and legends of the first Canadian settlers. There is limited space available for lawn chairs at each show, and light snacks and refreshments are available for purchase or juggling.

Unruly hair get a thorough scrub-a-dubbing with a cleansing wash before savvy snippists employ scissors or fastidious horses to nibble strands into chic coifs. Post-trim, a thorough blow-dry renders newly chopped tresses as sleek and bouncy as a tuxedo-clad pogo stick. Those opting for the hair colouring option can confer with a pigment professional about flattering hair hues during the pre-treatment colour consultation, after which the solid one-colour morphs dull strands into vibrant locks.

ChemDry By Edward
Redeem from home
http://www.chemdryedward.com/

Today’s Groupon to ChemDry By Edward. Choose between the following options:

  • For $55, you get a three-piece sofa cleaning (a $250 value, including HST).
  • For $65, you get a two-room (or up to 300 sq. ft.) carpet cleaning (a $135 value, including HST).

ChemDry By Edward cleans carpets, furniture, and other room dwellers without detergents or chemicals. Floor toupées find a new reason to lie still after bathing in ChemDry’s carbonation system, which spares them the damage rug shampooing and washboard scrubbing can do. To accomplish a thorough cleaning, certified cleaning maestros move any headstrong furniture out of the way, with the exception of entertainment centres, china cabinets, and Christmas trees cast in lead. The green-certified ChemDry method, which eschews soaps and phosphates, finds a similarly appreciative audience in the sofa peanut gallery. Errant spots and stains make a hasty retreat after meeting the stalwart carbonation, which de-furs favourite sitting places of pet hair and mystery fluff. The staff provide all customers with a free cleaning quote with no obligation.

Today’s Groupon also includes 40% off additional services, such as furniture, rug, and tile and grout cleaning—and half off cleaning supplies or interior car cleaning—that are performed on the same visit. After the cleaning is complete, ChemDry By Edward has a 30-day guarantee to ensure that carpets, couches, and their keepers are equally pleased once the grimeless mug shots are developed.

Pure Life Adventures
Redeem on location
http://www.purelifeadventures.ca/

Today’s Groupon from Pure Life Adventures in the Pontiac. Choose between the following options:

For $115, you get a two-day guided white-water-canoeing excursion with camping for one near Waltham (up to a $270 value).
For $69, you get a one-day guided leisurely canoe excursion for two in Campbell’s Bay (up to a $230 value).

In Pure Life Adventures’ one-day canoe adventures, two boaters of any skill level meet certified river guides at Ft. Coulonge for a six-hour introductory session on calm waters. Trips begin at 9 a.m. with a basic canoe-skills refresher, before instructors lead groups out to secluded Ottawa River channels. Tandem paddlers explore the natural scenery, including islands, coves, beaches, and used bookstores, ending their voyage with a 3 p.m. docking in Campbell’s Bay. At a midpoint during their quest, boating groups pause along the shore for a brief lunch. Since guides augment each day trip with instruction as needed from the beginner level, attendees may arrive without prior canoeing experience or preconceived notions of physics.

Two-day whitewater canoeing trips challenge experienced paddlers to master class II and III whitewater rapids in 16-foot tandem canoes along the Noire River. The first morning, shuttles convey intrepid boaters to base camp, where they plant their tents adjacent to stretches of whitewater and undergo a basic canoeing review. In the afternoon participants tackle whitewater canoeing instruction, during which the guides cover canoe safety and put paddlers out for their first rapid showdown, and groups unwind with a discussion of whitewater canoeing theory in the evening. On day two, adventurers stretch arms and paddles with a morning warm-up and put their rapids skills to work in a daylong practice, until evening prompts them to break camp and board return shuttles. Guides break up the water-wrangling sessions with four wilderness meals, which can include soup, pierogi, sausages, and pancakes. By the end of the excursion, paddlers should be able to run a confident line through rapids and have a deeper empathy for their canoe’s doubts and fears.

Both tours must assemble at least two participants in order to start, and the two-day tour can accommodate parties of up to 8, while the one-day tour provides space for up to 12. Guides equip river roamers with resources such as shuttle transport, canoes, paddles, lifejackets, meals, cooking equipment, and emergency Travel Scrabble. Overnight adventurers should bring their own tents and camping sundries, though guides can rent out some overnight equipment and second-hand campfire ghost stories. Pure Life Adventures’ expert local guides train students in various outdoor adventure disciplines, including swift water rescue and leave-no-trace camping.
