Everything at Canyon Ranch is done on a big, unique scale. To wit: In Lenox, a former U.S. surgeon general oversees medical care. Healing from the inside out is a major reason to book time here with doctors, nurses, physical therapists, acupuncturists, nutritionists, and personal trainers. They'll all help you manage the chronic illnesses of our fast-paced modern life—diabetes, heart disease, and sleep disorders, for example.

Set in the 1897 Bellefontaine Mansion in the Berkshires near Tanglewood, summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, this sprawling facility delivers an astounding range of treatments. Start with a thorough set of diagnostic tests at the Integrative Health Center, and then meet with your personal physician for an hour. Next, a nurse educator will outline a course of action for your stay here and coordinate all delivery of services to be sure you get what you need. Choose from established programs like Cleveland Clinic-Canyon Ranch Executive Health, Optimal Living, Brain Fitness, Stress & Mood Management, or Inspired Living. Or create your own from scratch.

Be sure to leave time, of course, for the full menu of luxuriant spa treatments, such as Yamuna sessions in which a small, soft ball supports key parts of the body while a specially trained therapist stretches muscles (and more) to improve flexibility and range of motion. Top-notch fitness options in the 100,000-square-foot spa complex include Pilates, yoga, spinning, running, swimming, tennis, kayaking, and a ropes course.
