3. Rhapsody Spa

Rhapsody Spa has relaunched as Tennessee’s sole provider of Sodashi, a natural and ethically sourced skin care line from Australia. The spa features a co-ed sauna and private steam showers. It has introduced two exclusive services to celebrate its reopening. 

Soul-to-Sole is a head to toe, 50-minute, tension-relieving experience that nurtures overworked areas. It begins with a steaming head wrap, nourishing mask and tension-relieving scalp massage. The arms and hands are then pampered with warm compresses, a gentle jojoba bead exfoliation and a comforting massage. Lastly, the feet are treated with warm compresses and an invigorating massage with mint and arnica oils.

Sodashi Samadara Illuminating Age-Defying Facial is an 80-minute treatment using Sodashi Samadara serums, creams and oils enhanced with rose quartz crystals and botanical extracts packed with antioxidans, vitamins, minerals and fatty acids. Antiaging techniques rooted in Ayurvedic traditions awaken the skin’s natural healing energy for a truly transformational treatment.
