The Wellness Program is organized within the Human Resources Department.
Its staff consists of a Wellness Director, Wellness Assistant, Health and Fitness advisor,
several Wellness Educators and interns. This group assists and supports staff in all areas
of Resort to Health.

The Wellness Warrior Committee is comprised of delegates who are
assigned to every department to provide regular updates on the program and its many
activities. To find out who your department representative is, or to inquire about

Throughout the year
RESORT TO HEALTH will offer personal growth lectures and workshops in such areas as
stress, relationships, self-esteem, and habit management.
Mental Health Services
As one of our benefits, Canyon Ranch has contracted with an Employee
Assistant Program to provide free, short-term, confidential counseling for staff and their
families who need help with personal problems. In Tucson, the 24-hour crisis service
number is 469-8700. There is also a brochure available in the Human Resources reception
area.
Health Screening and Fitness Testing
Every January we offer Health and Fitness screenings for all staffers.
In addition, appointments are available on an individual basis. All you have to do is
contact the Resort to Health office and make an appointment. We hold these screenings for
a number of reasons. A health screening provides an opportunity to identify medical
concerns or health risks. Fitness testing helps us assess current fitness levels and
provides a performance baseline against which to measure improvement. In addition, the
tests can help you tailor a more effective exercise program. Our screening includes a
battery of tests focusing on the components of fitness:
- cardiorespiratory endurance
- muscular strength
- muscular endurance
- flexibility
- body composition
As a medical health precaution, we check for hypertension (blood
pressure) first. If you blood pressure exceeds 140/90, we are unable to continue the
screening process and you will be referred to your physician. Please note: Screenings take
approximately one hour.
Get Started Today
In short, the Resort to Health program is a comprehensive wellness
program incorporating Canyon Ranchs empowerment philosophy. This program is for
