Holistic Tune-Up Rich and Famous Unwind and Recharge at Arizona's Canyon Ranch Spa
美國峽谷農莊豪華SPA之旅

I'm Dr. Sanjay Gupta. We tune up our cars, renovate our homes, but what about a routine maintenance plan for our bodies? There's a place in Arizona that performs a human equivalent of a 100,000-mile checkup. We sent our reporter, Michael Holmes, there. He's covered stories in many of the world's hotspots, but his latest assignment is one of the world's hottest spas.
我是桑杰·古普塔醫師，我們會檢修汽車、重修房屋，但是定期的身體維護保養呢?在亞利桑那州有個地方做人體健康檢查就像跑了10萬英里的汽車做檢修一樣。我們派本臺記者邁克爾·荷姆斯前往探訪。他報道過全世界許多熱門地點，但是他最新的任務是要采訪這個世界上最熱門的Spa水療館。

Hearing gunfire around here is not all that unusual, but that's pretty close.
在這附近聽到槍響其實并沒有那么不尋常，不過這聲響真的挺近的。
We all have busy lives these days. For me, be it Baghdad or the anchor desk, I have a miserable diet, some bad former and current habits and my idea of exercise is walking to the car in the morning.
我們現在日子都過得很忙碌，對我來說.不管是在巴格達還是主播臺，我的飲食習慣都很糟糕，有一些以前和現在的壞習慣，而且我認為的運動就是每天早上走路去取車。
And so for once I get an assignment like this-Canyon Ranch, Tucson, Arizona. Report, they said, on how some spas are no longer, well, spas. Here it's a 1 00,000-mile checkup, chi gong to stress tests, 140 activities a week, if you want, and state-of-the-art medical equipment. A former U.S. surgeon general is on staff. Oh, and leave the cell phones and the BlackBerrys behind, please.
而現在我卻受命來到這里，亞利桑那州圖森市的峽谷農場。他們說要做一個有關Spa水療館不只是Spa 水療館的報道。這相當于跑了10萬英里的汽車做檢修，從氣功到壓力檢測，一周有140種活動，如果你要的話，還有科技最先進的醫療設備，還請到了美國前衛生局長坐鎮。對了，拜托別把你的手機和黑莓機帶進來。
Like I'm busted.
好像我被逮到了。
Dawn hikes through the Arizona desert are a good way to start any day, but the theory here is activities like this, or perhaps an early morning stretch, are just slivers of a holistic approach to wellness that covers all bases, and it's catching on. The Canyon Ranch organization, for example, draws in 30,000 people a year, prepared to pay up to $1 ,000 a day to tune up, well over $100 million in income, much of it plowed back into high-tech medical facilities.
拂曉時在亞利桑那沙漠徒步行走是開啟一天的好方法，但這里的理論是，這類活動或任何清晨的伸展運動，都只是整體健康之道的一小部分，而且這種做法現在很流行。舉例來說，峽谷農莊機構一年吸引三萬人加入，他們愿意一天支付近 1000美元來調整自己，該機構超過一億美元的收入多半用來添購高科技醫療設施。

Next, I'm going to do a floral toning lotion on you.
水療美容師接著我要幫你抹上花精調理露。

Yes, she said floral toning lotion; what of it? Holistic does include the occasional facial, even for me.
沒錯，她是說花精調理露，有何不可?所謂整體真的就包括偶爾做臉，即使對象是我。
Now, I am feeling rather pampered right now, I have to say. This is very relaxing, but the thing here is it's not just about facials and massages. It's about changing your lifestyle, how you live, from what you eat to how you exercise, to how you live your life once you leave-which is pretty much what the clients want, and they're happy clients. Sixty percent are return customers tuning Up their lives. It's hard work, relaxation, and it's as much working out as you want.
現在，我得說，此刻真的感覺備受嬌寵。這讓人很放松，但這里的重點不只是做臉或按摩。重點是要改變你的生活方式，看你怎么過日子。從怎么吃、怎么運動，到一旦你離開這里之后要怎么生活。這些都是顧客需要的，而他們對此感到很滿意，有60%是回頭客來調整他們的生活。這兒的療程包含有強度的鍛煉和身心放松，你可以如你所愿盡情鍛煉身體。
You're trying to make it look like I didn't complete this.
你故意要讓我看起來像沒完成訓練啊。
The moment of truth for everyone comes at the end-a full-on assessment, which can take a couple of hours to sift through. It was in many ways a wake-up call, nothing dramatic, but time to follow through on some lessons sometimes exhaustively learned. A lesson, perhaps, for all of us. Getting healthy and staying that way isn't about doing one thing here and there. It's about changing attitudes, changing a culture of excess into a culture of success.
最后是每個人面對真相的時刻:一份要花好幾個小時篩檢的全面評估。就許多方面來說，這是一記警鐘，沒有夸張唬人，只是要提醒大家接受某些有時要累攬了才吸取的教訓。或許這是我們大家都該吸取的教訓:想追求并保持健康，不是漫不經心、這里那里隨便做點什么事，而是要改變態度，將放縱過度的文化，轉變成幸福成功的文化。
