Well hello again everyone out there I hope you are all fit and well and enjoying the new look of www.therapypages.com we have been working on the site and experimenting with some new looks some of which worked and some which did not. Thank you for your input, we do take notice of what you say and try to reply straight away to anyone who emails us, keep your comments coming in, your opinions are valued.
We had an exciting weekend in Glastonbury and the weather was very kind to us, the sun shone and the rain stayed away. We drove down on the Saturday morning and arrived just after lunch. After dropping our bags off at the lovely B&B where we stay we wandered around the shops for a while before heading off to Street, which is the next village for our evening meal. One of our group was absolutely appalled when she was offered a dog for sale by a rather drunken young man in the high street. It was only after some gentle reasoning she was persuaded that it was probably not a good idea to return to the B&B with a dog in tow (although she did plan to sleep in the car with it). We decided that he quite likely sold the dog on a regular basis to raise funds and the dog could find its way home from wherever it ended up.
The Sunday morning dawned clear and bright and our trip to the village included our visit to The Chalice Well where we all went our separate ways to spend some time with ourselves. If you have never been to this magical place please try to find the time to visit it. The water is known for its healing values and the gardens are well tended and there is always something new to see. I love the feeling of peace and tranquillity that I get when sitting quietly meditating in one of the many quiet corners and the taste of the waters is rich with iron. Altogether a magical place and one I would heartily recommend to anyone seeking peace and quiet. We returned home via Avebury where we walked amongst those ancient stones, then recharged and refreshed we returned home.
Work continues and we have been busy as usual trying to think of new and exciting things to put on the web site for you and we came up with the "Inspiration cards". Each one is printed on a beautiful rainbow coloured card with an inspiring or uplifting thought. They come complete with their own velvet bag and all you have to do is think of a question and then pick out a card. The quotation on the card will invariably tie in with your query and may even give you the answer or guidance. They will be available from www.therapypages.com very shortly and we are hoping that our magical Steve will work his wonders and be able to show a sample each week of the actual cards. We have no doubt that he will be able to do this as soon as he is freed from the chore of having to do jury service which is what he is doing at the moment. Some people will do anything to get out of work!!
Well people I think I have just about covered everything for this time. I hope you will all enjoy the next couple of months and will keep checking out our wonderful site. Thank you to all the people who have listened to the CD's and then ordered them for themselves. They have been selling really well and if you haven't got your copy yet check it out for yourself on www.therapyinabox. or on www.therapypages.com take care and enjoy the summer. Until next time

Last month we tried an experiment with a pop-up advertisement. This seemed to get in the way of peoples use and made the site harder to work with for a few of you, so we abanded that and have left you to visit the links page at your own leisure. Appologies to those of you who had a hard time whilst it was active.
New products are to be added to the site shortly, so keep an eye out on the shop, and the news letter. Don't forget you can order goods using cheque payment or credit card. We like to make sure that you feel safe ordering the way you want to. If you need help with the off line order form, or on-line ordering, please call us or send us an e-mail and we would be only too happy to help you.
If you are still looking for a competitive web site design, then try our on-line web quote. If you find a quote cheaper, e-mail us and we'll see what we can do to match it. We have designed sites for many therapists in the past and the price we tell you before we start is the price you will pay when we finish. For large scale sites we do ask for half of the payment up front, but we will tell you this before we start.
If you are looking to design you're own site and would like some help we provide a cheap consultancy on a per page basis to help you overcome problems with search engines, display problems on different browsers and more.
And don't forget, if there is anything you would like to see added to the site, or if you have products you wish to sell through our site please let us know by Email or by telephone.
