About We Care Spa Juice Fasting & Spiritual Retreat
We Care Spa, a destination spa complete with panoramic mountain views in Desert Hot Springs, has been leading the movement of cleansing the body, mind, and soul with an all-liquid diet program since 1986. Coupled with colon therapy, yoga, meditation, lymphatic massages and other purposeful healing body treatments and activities, personal instruction is used for instruction in nutrition, breath work, and more. The notion of fasting in the desert as a means to physical and mental clarity has existed since the beginning of time. Today, We Care is a popular spot for overworked corporate executives, models, musicians, and actors as well as the spiritually minded and health-conscious around the globe.We Care's programs are based on the theory that most people are taking in an excess amount of toxins through a diet of processed foods filled with additives and preservatives. Often, these toxins contribute to disease and adverse health conditions such as low energy, digestive problems, decreased alertness, allergies, fatigue, and weight gain. We Care's liquid diet is designed to cleanse the system, especially the large intestine and colon.

The spa program at We Care Spa focuses on cleansing and detoxifying the body through an all-natural liquid fast. Some of the specific products used in this diet are Kyogreen, Powergreen, Acidophilus, freshly squeezed vegetable juice, lemon water, enzymes, and teas. Guests begin their day with fitness and nutrition classes. Throughout the day, guests ingest eleven different nutritional drinks, one per hour.
A variety of additional services and therapy options are available. To facilitate the cleansing process, lymphatic massage is offered to keep the body's lymphatic system functioning properly. Manual therapy modalities are formulated to relieve blockages from the body's energy flow and include reflexology, digestive releases, stone massage, and raindrop therapy. Detoxifying body scrubs are aimed at opening clogged pores and exfoliating dead skin cells for more effective detoxification.

Rooms & Dining
Designed by celebrated environmental designer Jennifer Johnson, the rooms are architecturally curvaceous and have cushy carpeting. A host of all-natural beauty products, including detox bath salt, fill the enormously spacious bathrooms. Colony Suites are over-the-top accommodations with rich linens, fireplaces, and oversized bathtubs. Deluxe rooms are corner units with king and twin size beds, comfortable seating area, and a personal patio. Private rooms are spacious and include queen size beds, private baths, and unique decor.
The We Care liquid diet is rich in nutrients and offers many specific ingredients to address flushing various organs including the liver and kidneys that act as filtering systems for the body. As the body easily accepts the natural liquid diet, it allows the digestive system to utilize more energy in cleaning out the life long accumulated waste products and toxins. This process is accelerated through the use of colonics: an effective measure for accelerating the emptying and cleaning of the colon and large intestine. Some of the specific products used as part of the We Care natural liquid diet include Kyogreen, Spirulina, Wheat Grass, Barley, Acidophilus, and freshly squeezed vegetable juice.
