Welcome
to the Crystal Sanctuary
Our
aim is to keep holistic business
and spiritual development
As
simple and as easy to understand
as possible.
The
Crystal Sanctuary has grown
over the past 5 years not
just in supplying therapists
in the Scottish area, but
through supporting and supplying
therapists from the complementary
therapy and beauty sectors,
training organisations, small
businesses \ large organisations,
further education colleges
and the general public world
wide.
The
Crystal Sanctuary, in the
main, has been built through
word of mouth recommendation
by highly qualified and experienced
complementary therapists
and holistic teacher’s
worldwide.
Positive
word of mouth recommendations
covering the specialist quality
holistic products we personally
import from Germany,
Canada,
USA
and India.
Also the complementary therapy
training, workshops and introductions
we offer.
We
take our ethical trading
policies \ practices and
our trading terms & conditions
very seriously, in order
to provide you with the best
possible service that a one
man business can humanly
offer. However I am also
assisted and supported in
offer a personal yet quality
service by the guest Complementary
therapists, holistic teachers,
guest suppliers and friends
that you will be introduced
to within our web site.
The Crystal Sanctuary
Our
aim is to keep business and
spiritual development “self
empowerment” as simple
and as easy to understand
as possible, either by the
public or the many professional
therapists and teachers we
are associated with. I created
The Crystal Sanctuary to
support therapists in developing
their business practice and
services offered, with a
view to helping them to survive
financially in a difficult
profession.
Relaxation \ Healing
Music
As
a specialist music distributor,
I respect the commercial
need for profit margins,
however, the music I offer
you is of the highest quality
and is produced by musicians
who have a deep understanding
of the both the psychological
effects of music and the
spiritual needs of relaxation
& healing.
With
this in mind I will offer
you the best possible price
I can, in most cases even
better than the inclusive
prices offered by international
non official distributors
\ music suppliers.

Delivery payment calculated
by The Crystal Sanctuary
web site.
When
you place an order on via
the web site you will be
automatically charged a minimum
delivery charge of £2.50,
This is known a simple delivery
charging method.
It
is a problem to us at present,
due to the web e-commerce
software we use does not
allow multiple charging methods,
as yet, but we are working
on a fix for our sales situation.
However,
in the meantime we will Manually
adjust the delivery charge
up or down should it be required.
Example
1,
You buy 2 CD’s on line
delivery may be charged at
£2.50 per cd, £5.00.
Your
invoice is changed to show
the correct delivery charge
as being £2.50 only.
Example
2:
You buy 10 Cd’s your
bill will show a delivery
charge of 10 CD’s X
£2.50 (£25.00)
Your
invoice will be adjusted
to show the delivery charge
as being £9.50 courier \
insurance protection charge
only.
Before
your payment method is debited
you will be emailed or called
if you prefer, to advise
you of the adjusted delivery
charge.
We
do not offer credit accounts,
strictly payment with order.
Crystals and Minerals
At
this time we are unable to
offer a full catalogue of
the minerals we stock.
The
cost of producing a full
colour catalogue is prohibitive.
However,
as a compromise we will be
compiling a comprehensive
“Guide to the “Crystal
Sanctuary” with colour
inserts, as examples, styles
of what we mainly import,
and introducing the crystals,
minerals I personally import,
in raw, polished, and hand
made silver jewellery form.
This will include several
introductions to the aspects
of crystal therapy and Fung
Shui. As well as a full colour
section covering “Working
with Crystals and minerals”
this is to include the basics
in caring and implementing
your crystals into your business
and importantly you’re
every day life and working
practices.
Due
to the demand this is being
viewed as a matter of priority.
It is hoped that The Crystal
sanctuary “Working with
Crystals
and minerals” manual
1, will be ready for sharing
by May 2004.
When
completed our “Working
with Crystals
and minerals” manual,
we hope, this will allow
a deeper insight to my grounded
yet fun introduction to “Working
with Crystals
and minerals”.
The Crystal Sanctuary
Training
We
also provide specialist training
in several areas at present
we cover as you would expect,
an Introduction to Working
with Crystals
and Minerals. This course
is aimed at training you

of the trade shows or complementary
therapy events we attend

The Crystal Sanctuary
On-Line
Our
introduction to the internet
was not a positive one.
It
was also very costly, however,
it provided me with the desire
to combine my 27 years experience,
gleaned as a qualified radio
amateur (GM7 VLC) and as
a time served engineer who
used the internet as a communications
medium, to create a web
site that worked and was
constantly growing.
After
seeking several very expensive
and totally unrealistic quotes
from web site building development
companies the universe introduced
me to Redbudgie Design &
Build.
The
Crystal Sanctuary formed
an alliance not a partnership
with Redbudgie Design &
Build to build it all started
with The Sanctuary Collective
web site, being a priority,
to mark the existence and
quality of service and support
offered to all who visited
us, offered by its Co-Founders,
Volunteer Therapists and
also the public who visited
The Sanctuary over the years.
We
know because of all the positive
feedback we received over
the years that The Sanctuary
Collective inspired many
new therapists and also introduced
Complementary therapies to
a wider audience. That’s
what we all we set out to
achieve, nothing more. That
is why this web site is merely
a beacon of recognition.
www.crystal-sanctuary.co.uk/the-sanctuary/index.html
The
success of The Sanctuary
web site, all be it a very
basic web site, encouraged
the development of an On-line
shop a shop window type site
for The Crystal Sanctuary.
It was decide in 2002 to
develop an in house, meaning
within the business structure
of The Crystal Sanctuary,
web building department with
the sole or soul creation
of a dedicated web site for
The Crystal Sanctuary. CS-ECOM
was born.
The Crystal Sanctuary
One
of our main aims is to support
all complementary therapists
and providers of therapeutic
services. By supplying specialist
tools that professional therapist’s
need to support their professional
practice to their clients.
I
also rely on and encourage
your advice as a therapist
\ retailer outlet to advise
me and other therapists of
the possible uses of the
music as we as quality new
music and other holistic
products you would like The
Crystal Sanctuary to consider
stocking.
I
hope this makes The Crystal
Sanctuary sales policy and
also my terms & conditions
clearer to you. More detailed
information can be found
by contacting us using The
Crystal Sanctuary Support
Page, accessed through the
main menu.
We
are also here as a support
service to all energy workers
not just regarding our products
or services.
All
are welcome.
CS-ECOM
CS-ECOM
(Crystal Sanctuary E-commerce)
has proven to be a success
as an in house web development
facility.
It’s
cost-effective and its only
driving force is getting
the job done with No- Hassle,
when every possible. However,
this goal is only achieved
by you learning from our
mistakes and not repeating
them by not following our
advise or our tested co-ordinate
procedures for creation your
web presence.
CS-ECOM
is organised into two important
sections.
Section 1.
Business
grade Web Hosting, Web Solutions,
Web Design & Web Site
Optimisation with Administration
provided by The Crystal Sanctuary.
Section 2.

site Building, Maintenance
and Programming services
are provided by Redbudgie
Design & Build.
We
now offer web site related
services to micro-small businesses
at a fraction of the cost
of the main stream web development
companies. Whilst still retaining
all the functionality, security
and design elements that
allow your web site to be
found initially by the search
