New Spa Offerings at Canyon Ranch, MA

I took Jerry Cohen’s advice and signed up for some things that were new to me. Easy to do here at Canyon Ranch, where the Index of Possibilities lists over 200 choices. Here’s what I tried and a quick thought about each experience.

“Clearing Energy Blocks“: In the Healing Energy department. I was skeptical, but I ended up feeling better after the session.

“Ayurvedic Medicine Consultation“: In the Preventive & Integrative Medicine department.

An outstanding example of an integrative experience.

“Canoe and Hike Trip“: Picture perfect day. One hour of canoeing and one hour of hiking – splendid and mentally uplifting even though my husband was in the back of the canoe “steering.” icon smile New Spa Offerings at Canyon Ranch, MA

Too Young to Spa? Try a Youth Gym!

I came across these photos the other day and wanted to learn more. With obesity increasingly prevalent among young people these days, it was heartening to see youngsters exercising. But I have always felt that gyms were for adults and, indeed, many gyms have age restrictions. In a way, it doesn’t make sense for us to keep kids out of the gym and encourage them to exercise at the same time.

SHOKK® Ltd is a company in the UK that provides exercise equipment and experiences specifically for kids between the ages of eight and 16. The company’s stated mission: “Our aim is to create an exciting and stimulating environment to ensure young people are engaging in a positive physical activity experience.” The equipment at these facilities is designed for young people, and so are the gyms themselves. A kid-friendly color scheme, music systems, color-change lighting, educational charts, plasma screens and projectors, branded flooring, mirror effects, and even a chill-out zone complete with healthy vending machines attract youngsters, helping them to forge sensible fitness habits for life.
