I've been smiling blankly at endless Zoom calls. I need a break. Your mind drifts to someplace warm, the sun on your skin, the sound of waves crashing In fact, my pals Alex and Leah recently went to Feathers Spa at The Peabody for an afternoon of facials, massages, and saunas.
The spa was renovated in and earned the number six spot on the "Top Spas" list. We had to go see in person if it lived up to all the hype. Before I get into their in-depth research into this downtown Memphis spa, here's some basic info on Feathers:. Feathers is in the lower level of the Peabody. You can enter on Second Street through the entrance across from Automatic Slim's or through the lobby.
It's my favorite thing about The Peabody. But I digress. Anyone can make an appointment for Feathers—you do not have to be a hotel guest! This is why I think Feathers is a hidden gem and underrated, especially when people living or working downtown can get a 25 percent discount on spa services Sunday - Thursday.
Yes, you can read more about the Feathered Friends Club here. You can get couples massages, too. Feathers also offers manicures, pedicures, waxing, and hair and makeup styling in the downtown Memphis salon. They also have a shop with upscale beauty products and skin treatments. My friends Alex and Leah had a spa afternoon at Feathers, trying out different treatments.
Davia addressed my concerns and adjusted her treatment for what she thought would suit me and my skin the best. You get changed into robes and hang out in the Relaxation Room for a few minutes, then you are led into a cozy and dark room with gentle music and soothing rain sounds.
