Healing Installations at We Care Spa
At We Care Spa we approach your healing wholistically. As such we have permanent installations that are not only unique and beautiful, but also enhance your detoxification and spiritual well-being.
The Ancient Labyrinth – A Universal Symbol of Transformation
The labyrinth was created in ancient times to represent humankind’s search for the core of divinity. The pattern is an archetypal form dating back thousands of years. No one knows who created the original labyrinth form, but we do know from experience that embedded within each design is a pattern that guides us to our deepest inner being. Whether walked or traced in sand, the labyrinth pattern is a powerful tool for reflection, invocation, meditation and healing.
Unlike a maze, a labyrinth has one linear path that starts from the outer edge, moves into the heart or center, and then back out again. Through the act of trusting the path and giving up conscious control of how things should go, we are opened up to a whole new world. Through the beautiful flow of their sacred patterns, labyrinths help us ground ourselves and experience a relaxing state of timelessness.
Our labyrinth holds many memories. Many of the stones were placed by guests who learned to express their creativity – and free their spirits – through the art of mosaic. You’ll see these colorful reminders as you walk the path towards the center.
We Care Spa built a sacred labyrinth over 25 years ago because of its healing and detoxifying properties and the profound place it holds in the process of detoxifying the body, mind and spirit.

Floating Bed
This installation allows you to experience the benefits of floating motion – the same safe motion that we felt, gently floating in our mother’s womb. It has positive effects on the lymphatic and circulatory systems, activating a deep, powerful relaxation response.
The subtle motion provides better sleep, and less morning stiffness. Studies show rocking improves dreams, and reduces overall stress. Though not fully understood, the mechanism is also reported to cure motion sickness.
Rocking also increases oxygen delivery to the cells. Your body burns food and oxygen to generate electricity to power your muscles and nervous system. Your cells are starved for oxygen until the lymphatic vessels remove toxins, blood proteins, and water. Rocking promotes this electrochemistry, increasing overall health, energy, and alertness. During rocking, lymphatic circulation increases while you are in a relaxed physical, emotional, and mental state. This experience provides motion that is vital to the body as it enters a more positive state, ready for healing

Far-Infrared Sauna
Far-infrared heat is a completely safe form of naturally occurring energy that travels 2 to 3 inches deep into your body, warming it up.
This warming, similar to a fever, has a positive effect on your immune system. Your body naturally boosts the function of your immune system during a fever, detoxifying and slowing down virus and bacterial growth.
Far-infrared sauna therapy allows increased blood circulation to carry great amounts of nutrients to the skin, promoting a healthy tone and texture. It also provides a mild cleansing of the skin.
Far-infrared saunas detoxify the body and get rid of fat. One liter of sweat in an ordinary sauna contains approximately 3% toxins, whereas in a far infra-red sauna it contains 20%, including heavy metals such as cadmium, nickel and lead.
Many toxins are flushed out when in a far-infrared sauna. Human body fat starts to liquefy at 110 degrees Fahrenheit. When fat leaves your body through transpiration, it takes heavy metals along on the way out, which is the deepest level of detoxification during your liquid fasting program. The deep penetration of far-infrared energy in your skin makes this happen. This does not occur in a traditional sauna, only in a far-infrared sauna.
Increased blood circulation stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built-up toxins and waste. Daily sweating can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of an accumulation of potentially carcinogenic heavy metals (lead, mercury, zinc, nickel, cadmium) as well as alcohol, nicotine, sodium, sulfuric acid and cholesterol.
Losing weight in a far-infrared sauna occurs because you burn calories when you sweat. You can easily produce up to half a liter of transpiration during an average 30 minute infrared session. This is the equivalent of 300 Kcal, or 600 and up to 800 Kcal for a one hour session, and all you have to do is sit and relax.
The far-infrared heat penetrates deeper into your body than the heat in an ordinary sauna. Because human fat starts to liquefy at 110 degrees F, subcutaneous fat can be released along with your sweat. Your pores are cleansed, your skin will become healthier and you get rid of all kinds of toxins that are accumulating in your body fat.
3 Keys to successful detoxification using the far infra-red sauna:
- Hydrate; Drink at least 2-3, 8 oz glasses of Alkaline Kangen water for every 15 minute session.
- Monitor your time; each session should last no more than 30 min.
- Use hot/cold stimulation to intensify the effects; Alternate your sauna sessions with a jump in the pool. This sequence is very stimulating to the body.
