From Sleep Detoxes to Longevity Retreats: The Best Wellness Resorts for Every Type of Traveler
- 8600 E Rockcliff Rd, Tucson, AZ 85750
With locations across the country, including Austin, Woodside, Lenox, Las Vegas, Fort Worth, and its Tucson flagship, Canyon Ranch is one of the pioneers in American holistic wellness resorts. Guests can both indulge in spa treatments and meet with medical professionals, all in one place.
The recently launched Longevity8 Retreat is a customizable four-day program that assesses and optimizes all aspects of your health based on eight pillars of longevity: integrative medicine, flexibility and fitness, mental and emotional health, spiritual wellness, strength and endurance, nutrition, sleep and outdoor experiences. Be prepared to get poked and prodded during 15 diagnostic tests, including a continuous glucose monitor, a sleep study, a VO2 max test, and bloodwork that examines over 200 biomarkers such as Lipoprotein(a) and insulin. The work doesn’t end when you check out; you’ll schedule 18 consultations with medical and fitness experts that continue beyond the retreat dates. Your dedicated team of medical professionals and experts work collectively to review and discuss your medical records and develop a personalized and holistic plan just for you—something that would require countless hours and thousands of dollars to achieve with today’s healthcare system.
The $20,000 per person (or $36,00 per couple) cost for the Longevity8 program is definitely hefty, but for the longevity-obsessed, it might be well worth the investment. The rate includes accommodations and the resort’s all-inclusive offerings, such as healthy meals (a nutritional menu is provided). Indulge in the grass-fed beef burger or pineapple habanero shrimp tacos guilt-free, knowing that dishes are made with organic, locally sourced produce. M/Power is the newest program offered at the Lenox location, tailored for women navigating the challenges of perimenopause and menopause, with the first retreat taking place March 10-13, 2025.
