Do you groan at the mention of 'Work Life Balance'?
An estimated 13 million working days are lost very year in the UK due to back pain* and
estimates of the cost of stress and stress-related illness range from £5 billion (TUC) to £12 billion (CBI)
each year**. It is no wonder that there is increasing pressure on employers to help employees with these
issues and the issues surrounding 'Work Life Balance'.
How can Shen Therapies help?
I am a therapist now, but I have spent12 years working in marketing in high pressure commercial departments
for various organisation in the commercial and charity sectors. This has given me a unique insight into the needs
of an organisation and the employees within it. The demands on all parties in their working environment, plus
increased stress levels being experienced, can mean that employees lose focus, which in turn detracts from reaching
their full potential. I can help them and your organisation improve performance by taking a holistic, effective,
and grounded view. With the range of therapies I offer, I can help with a broad spectrum of issues and conditions
from stress and anxiety, back pain, asthma and high blood pressure through to performance related issues, emotional
problems, giving up smoking and weight loss issues. Please click on the links above to find out more information
on each therapy and the benefits they offer.
Please call to arrange a
FREE treatment/session for the primary decision maker.
What does 'Work Life Balance' mean?
'Work Life Balance is about people having a measure of control over when, where and
how they work. It is achieved when an individual's right to a fulfilled life inside and outside paid work
is accepted and respected as the norm, to the mutual benefit of the individual, business and society'
- The Work Foundation
What packages are available?
I usually use a combination of therapies during any one session - unless we are addressing an issue that
requires a particular form of treatment or if the recipient requests on particular form. Treatments usually last
1 hour, however, 30 minute Shiatsu sessions are also available and still very beneficial and effective for the
recipient. The recipient stays fully clothed for all treatments
Option 1
Your organisation supports and promotes the opportunity for treatments and a room is made available on a particular
day of the week for treatments lasting 30 or 60 minutes and quite simply, the employee pays for their treatment at
a discounted rate. I prefer employees to have line management support as their 'slot' may fall outside 'standard'
lunch hours.
Option 2
As per option 1, a room is made available and the treatments are part subsidised by the employer.
Option 3
As per options 1 and 2 but the treatments are fully subsidised by the employer.
There would need to be a minimum of 4 hours worth of treatment, either four 60 minute sessions
or a combination of 60 and 30 minute sessions, for me to visit the offices.
