It all began with the vision and passion of the Felician Sisters. Their plans for the cancer center included a healing garden to provide a place for patient spiritual rest and renewal.
Today, physicians and patients alike understand that natural environments can interact with the central nervous system to reduce stress responses, which can favorably influence the outcome of diseases that are characterized by an over activation of the stress response.
The Conservancy's We Energies Foundation Healing Garden is nearly an acre and on the same land as the majestic forest of historic trees. The trees create a canopy during all seasons providing the visitor an experience which is world-class. The Garden is specifically designed to provide the visitor with the natural environment to reduce stress responses. This affects the endocrine, cardiovascular, immune and nervous systems. Areas for rest, reflection and rejuvenation will be abundant.
The We Energies Foundation Healing Garden surrounds the Reiman Healing Chapel.
Several sponsorships are available for various aspects of the Healing Garden. To learn how you or your organization can help, click below.
