Canyon Ranch
THE SPA OF SPAS:
üBER-PAMPERING IN THE BERKSHIRES.
From the March 24, 2003 Issue of New York
There are spas, and there are destination spas.
Around these parts, the mother of all places to pamper
yourself is Canyon Ranch. The Lenox, Massachusetts,
retreat, in the heart of the Berkshires, offers a full
load of spa amenities—fitness classes, indoor
and outdoor pools, spa cuisine, and all sorts of
stress-relieving treatments. But the real draw is the
lifestyle-management programs: Staff doctors and
behavioral experts work with guests on everything from
losing weight and quitting smoking to dance therapy.
Thanks to its woodsy location, the resort, built
around an old mansion, also offers guided hikes along
the Appalachian Trail and pretty bike rides on twisty
country roads. Get as tired as you like. A
revitalizing salt glo will heal what ails you.
