The Old School House Therapies

05/02/2023

Therapy room in Shaftesbury.

We have some availability in our relaxing and spacious therapy rooms in central Shaftesbury.

There are various sessions available in the week that might suit a counsellor, massage therapist or other bodywork therapy. The larger room may also suit small classes.

The Old School House is in a quiet courtyard where there are several other related businesses. There is one parking space available for use with the room.

Please contact the owner, Dr Karen Janes, for more information about the cost and availability. We are keen to find treatments that complement what the current small team of therapists currently offer.

Please note this isn’t an offer of employment. All therapists will be self-employed with their own clients and professional insurance.

Dr Karen Janes, Owner of The Old School House Therapies, has two appointments available tomorrow. Treat yourself to a relaxing little time out just for you.

Are you feeling exhausted?
Are you struggling to keep on top of your normal day to day stuff?
Are you feeling overwhelmed and overloaded?
Would you quite like to curl up in a ball and pull the duvet over your head?
Did you answer 'yes' to any of those questions?

I unexpectedly have one appointment available this afternoon at The Therapy Centre in Salisbury this evening, (Wednesday 19th), at 4.45pm and two left tomorrow, (Thursday 20th), at The Old School House Therapies in Shaftesbury at 1.45 and 5.45pm. Get in touch with me directly (07941031427) to book one of those.

There are other times available next week if you can't make those slots. There's a link to book appointments online in the comments or get in touch with me directly and I can let you know my availability.

Don't struggle on your own, we all need a little help sometimes 🧡

It’s always good for therapists to treat themselves to a session here and there. Today I (Dr Karen Janes, owner of The Old School House Therapies) had a wonderfully relaxing treatment with my colleague Rebecca. It was a real treat for the last day of 2021. Becca is a skilled and intuitive therapist and healer. She has appointments available in the new year so why not treat yourself for January 🧡

Today is being called “Freedom Day” but it’s clear we’re not out the woods yet.

As the work I do involves close contact with a number of people for an extended time in a small room, one of which doesn’t have windows, I have taken the decision to continue wearing a face mask and asking all my clients to continue doing the same. Although I had my second vaccine a few weeks ago, quite a number of my clients are either not vaccinated, for various reasons, or only partially vaccinated and a considerable number remain in high risk and vulnerable groups.

Aside from the inconvenience to my clients if I needed to take time off to self isolate or got ill from Covid there would potentially be considerable knock on effects to other clients as well as my fellow self-employed therapists. We don’t get sick or holiday pay and have already had to take considerable time away from our businesses over the last year and a bit resulting in considerable loss of income and not being available to support all our clients as we normally work to do.

I would be devastated to discover that I had inadvertently caused someone else to be infected with Covid, with all the potential impact on their life, livelihood and long term health, for the sake of rushing to get rid of the precautions that have helped keep us as safe as possible so far.

If you are coming in for an appointment I’d be grateful if you could have a quick read of my updated guidelines and do your bit to help keep both The Therapy Centre and The Old School House Therapies open and everyone safe and well. Thank you 🧡

Dr Karen Janes is still available for online help whilst the doors to The Old School House Therapies are closed. Please don't hesitate to contact her if you are struggling and need a little support. You are welcome to book a series of sessions or a one-off. She brings her unique perspective as an Energy Healer and Meditation Teacher, as well as her training as a Clinical Psychologist, to her supportive online (or phone) counselling sessions.

You can contact her directly (karen@naturalhealingenergy.com / 07941031427) or book an appointment here: https://naturalhealingenergyappointments.as.me/schedule.php

I have once again, like so many businesses, had to close the physical doors to my two practices in Salisbury and Shaftesbury. I feel sad not to be able to offer that level of support to people and the wonderful energies that I work with that can be so helpful but this is what we need to do to help keep us all safe and support our struggling NHS. I will keep you posted as soon as I am able to take in-person bookings again but in the meantime online sessions and classes will continue.

Last year I began offering Supportive Counselling Sessions via phone or video call. These sessions are a little different to most traditional counselling in that, whilst you may want to consider a series of appointments, they can also be used for a one off or occasional opportunity to talk through a particular problem or get a little help at a time when things are feeling a struggle. I always bring my particular perspective as an energy healer and meditation teacher to these sessions to help you to feel as relaxed and balanced as possible and to release emotional energies if that is what is needed. I have had so much great feedback about how helpful these sessions can be.

One-to-one sessions can be booked via my online booking system or contact me directly if you prefer or don't see any availability that works for you (karen@naturalhealingenergy.com / 07941031427). I am also happy to arrange a brief phone conversation to help you decide whether this format could work for you.

You can book here: https://naturalhealingenergyappointments.as.me/schedule.php

I'll post more shortly but my weekly Online Self-Reiki Shares (for anyone with any level of Reiki Attunement) and weekly Online Meditation Classes (everyone is welcome) will resume from 11th and 14th January.
