This week’s hidden gem comes from @madeline.rose.nachbar : @watershedmpls spa. A sanctuary for restoration and style, Watershed is where presence meets wellness. I went to check it out for myself! I had the chance to meet owner Nell, explore behind the scenes, and experience the saunas, cold tub, and steam room—each designed to help you reset, recharge, and show up as your best self.
Book your appointment today and discover why @watershedmpls is more than a spa—it’s a Twin Cities treasure.
This segment is proudly sponsored by @kowalskis_markets , Where it’s all about the joy of good food. Thank you to Mary @fieldguideinc and @watershedmpls spa for the hospitality and coordination. I appreciate you!
