Canyon Ranch will always hold a special place in my heart. When I turned 35, as a birthday gift, my mom planned a stay for us at the Lenox, Massachusetts, location. This birthday trip started a long tradition of yearly visits until she passed away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of my time spent at Canyon Ranch, I\u2019ve incorporated many changes into my life through the years. In fact, it was so transformational that I changed my career from entertainment to the spa\/wellness industry! That is the true power of immersive wellness experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I knew immediately that I wanted to include Canyon Ranch in my Well Q&A column. Doris Lopez\u2014Vice President of Health and Healing for Canyon Ranch (Tucson, Lenox and Woodside)\u2014is joining me as my latest guest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doris is as passionate as I am about Canyon Ranch’s ability to produce meaningful health results. I think you\u2019ll enjoy getting to know her as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Canyon Ranch Uses Health & Healing & Transformation for Transformation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Sallie: I’d love to start by learning about you\u2014tell us a little about yourself.<\/strong>

Doris: <\/strong>I am a certified Wellness and Resiliency Coach. I feel so fortunate that I was able to turn my holistic passion into a meaningful career. I get to empower clients to choose health-promoting ways to produce real, meaningful and lasting results. It’s my job to develop and execute Health and Healing strategies for all Canyon Ranch entities.<\/em> How cool is that?!<\/em><\/p> <\/div>

Tell us something that very few people know about you!<\/strong>

D: <\/strong>I am a Mexican American, but my mother was pure Mayan Indian \ud83d\ude0a<\/em>.<\/p> <\/div>

What motivates you to do what you do?\u00a0What is your \u201cWhy?\u201d<\/strong>

D: <\/strong>I take pride in knowing that through my expertise our Canyon Ranch guests gain access to personalized, evidence-based care that can ultimately transform their lives.\u00a0<\/em><\/p> <\/div>

How did you end up in the medical\/healing profession?<\/strong>

D: <\/strong>My very first job was at age 15.\u00a0I worked as a receptionist after school for our neighborhood pediatrician. It was through this experience of working with children that I became \u201chooked.” I appreciated the intricacies of the human body. As my career progressed, I became more and more intrigued that our wellness comes not just from physical health, but from mental health and spiritual health as well.\u00a0That is why I become a Wellness Coach. My executive role at Canyon Ranch allows me to conceive new ideas, programs and strategies that allow our guests to deepen their personal growth, self-development and provide a healthier lifestyle. \u00a0<\/em><\/p> <\/div>

As one of the people leading Health and Healing at Canyon Ranch, what are some of the programs you most recommend?<\/strong>

D:<\/strong> We offer a truly integrative model of care at Canyon Ranch.\u00a0I would recommend working with our world-renown physicians and endorse a precision prevention medical consultation. This consult will consider individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle for each person. It is a contrast to a one-size-fits-all approach, in which disease treatment and prevention strategies are developed for the average person, with less consideration for the differences between individuals.<\/em><\/p> <\/div>

We know that having a strong immune system is more important than ever. What do you personally do to keep your immune system strong?<\/strong>

D: I personally walk 2-3 miles daily. I also practice Pilates weekly. It’s important to move your body daily and stay active.\u00a0This will keep your immune system strong.\u00a0I also take vitamin D and Zinc daily to further boost my immune system.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em>\"woodside-morning-salutations-canyon-ranch\"<\/p> <\/div>

What is most important for travelers to know as Immersive Resorts like Canyon Ranch reopen their doors?<\/strong>

D: Our team of medical experts have ensured that Canyon Ranch has taken the utmost precautions to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 at our properties.\u00a0Canyon Ranch has always provided a respite for the mind, body and spirit and will continue to do so.<\/em><\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n
