Nashville Health & Beauty

Located 21 stories above bustling downtown Nashville in the Joseph Hotel, the Rose Spa is all bleached oak, high ceilings, and neutral tones. We love the Touch of Luxe facial, which begins with a neck-and-shoulder massage with rose, birch rosemary, and mint oils, followed by a scalp massage that leads into a serious exfoliation, and ends with a firming lymphatic massage with rose quartz.

The spa inside the Westin feels relaxing and private—a perfect place to unwind with a massage, a glass of champagne, and a few rounds in the sauna.

This is a great spot for massages, facials, waxes, and haircuts, too. But the best part is the private baths, which you can book for up to 10 people at a time.

This Green Hills studio manages to be both a medical skin-care center and a spa haven, a dichotomy that trickles down from founder Karee Hays, a medical aesthetician. The Glow Facial involves a deep-steam detox with extractions followed by microdermabrasion, dermaplaning, lymphatic massage, and a chemical peel. You’re sent home with a customized regimen and complimentary two-week follow-up, to make sure your skin is thriving—or at least well on its way.

MEEL is a local twist on the classic Blue Apron–style concept—subscribers have ingredients for two meals delivered to their doors weekly, with easy instructions for cooking. And it might be even better, since everything but the seafood (which is sustainably sourced) comes from Tennessee, from the organic vegetables to the locally grazed meats. Everything also has a healthy bent, with daily-changing menu items that lean heavily on vegetables and lean protein.

Dr. Suman Chaudhuri, who practices holistic chiropractic bodywork, naturopathy, clinical nutrition, energy medicine, and stress management, did wonders for GP when her body was exhausted from long days on set.

At Nashville Integrated Medicine, the doctors take a holistic approach to evaluating a person’s health, taking factors like sleep, diet, exercise, and stress into account.
