Saranac Lake's tradition of revitalizing peoples' health and well-being began in the late 1800s when Dr. E.L. Trudeau recognized that the mountainous environment seemed to provide a cure for tuberculosis. While the TB era ended in the 1950s, Saranac Lake's wellness movement continues.  

Today, a range of services and activities are available to help enhance your health and well-being. Whether you come to Saranac Lake to seek out a professional for one-on-one personal attention, including yoga or a massage, or simply to immerse yourself in the majestic mountains, paddle the gorgeous lakes, or snowshoe through the quiet forest and breathe the fresh air, the Saranac Lake region is the perfect setting for rejuvenation.
