History
Canyon Ranch was founded by Mel and Enid Zuckerman and Jerry Cohen in 1979 in Tucson, Arizona. Zuckerman was originally inspired to start a health resort after his own success with improving his health. Following the financial success of the Tucson location, the Lenox resort opened in 1989. Spa + Fitness locations began opening starting in 1999. Additional locations were also located in Miami, Florida, and Kaplankaya, Türkiye. In 2008 Canyon Ranch faced a class action lawsuit and agreed to pay $14.7 million to workers who claimed they were deprived of tips. The plaintiffs consisted of hundreds of waiters, massage therapists, yoga instructors, and housekeepers. The settlement covered employees who worked from April 2004 to October 2007.
In mid 2017, Canyon Ranch was purchased by Goff Capital and the company's global headquarters were consequently moved to Downtown Fort Worth, Texas.

Origin of the name Canyon Ranch
In an interview with journalist David Leighton, published in the Arizona Daily Star newspaper, on June 24, 2014, Mel Zuckerman tells about the origin of the name Canyon Ranch:
Zuckerman left New Jersey with his family in 1958, and traveled west to find a new home. After 5 weeks of traveling around the western United States, Zuckerman ended up in Tucson, Arizona. He visited Sabino Canyon (a canyon, northeast of Tucson, at the base of the Santa Catalina Mountains), and decided he wanted to live near the natural beauty of this place. Later on when he decided to open a health resort in 1978, along with his wife Enid, he purchased the 42-acre Double U Dude Ranch, near Sabino Canyon. The old ranch buildings were in bad shape but rather than tear them down and potentially damage the energy of the place and scare away the wildlife he decided to rebuild them. When it came time to name the new resort he called it: Canyon Ranch, "a name derived from Sabino Canyon and the Double U Dude Ranch."
