Las Vegas Revival

Sin City’s penchant for excess extends to vitality at Canyon Ranch.

If the idea of prioritizing wellness in Las Vegas seems improbable, prepare to reconsider. Sin City is known for indulgence in all forms—including those centered on health and well-being. At Canyon Ranch Las Vegas (canyonranch.com) wellness isn’t just a concept; it’s the main point. Here, integrative programs blend physical health with spiritual balance, nutrition, and social connection, creating a genuinely engaging, holistic experience.

Tucked up on the fourth floor of The Venetian Resort, Canyon Ranch spans a colossal 134,000 square feet. While that may seem excessive (even by Las Vegas standards), every inch serves a purpose. The full-service spa offers more than 100 treatments and is complemented by two fitness centers, a 40-foot indoor rock-climbing wall, and two nutrition-focused dining venues.

Quick treatments may have their place, but it’s the languid, more uncommon experiences that set the facility apart. The Aquavana Suite, inspired by European hydrothermal traditions, offers a curated circuit of thermal cabins, soaking tubs, and water therapy designed to relieve tension and rejuvenate the body. The Abhyanga-Shirodhara treatment, rooted in Ayurveda, takes relaxation deeper with warm, herbal-infused oil massaged into the body, promoting centering and serenity from within.

After a night out on the Strip, stop by Canyon Ranch Café, a lively social lounge, offering thoughtfully portioned breakfast and lunch plates alongside craft cocktails, house-made syrups for coffee, and an array of fresh juices and smoothies. Meanwhile, Truth & Tonic focuses on nutrient-rich fare, featuring superfood-packed dishes with ample gluten-free and vegan options.
