Hi, I’m Simon, and if you’ve landed here, chances are you’re looking for something a bit different from the usual wellness options.
I’ve been working with people as a Shiatsu and bodywork therapist for over 20 years. I trained at the London College of Shiatsu in the late 90s and went on to build a busy private practice in London, where I worked for more than a decade, seeing private clients, helping people through chronic stress, long-standing physical tension, injury recovery, and everything in between.
Over the years, I added to my skillset, training in Thai Yoga Massage, RESET TMJ Release, Oriental Face Massage, Moxibustion, and several other complementary approaches. Each one deepened my understanding of the body and gave me more ways to help the people who came to see me.
A few years ago, my wife and I made the decision to leave London and relocate to Crete. It’s been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. After taking some time to settle in, and a stint teaching English through the pandemic, I’ve decided to bring my practice back to life here on the island.
I’m now offering Shiatsu, Thai Yoga Massage, and RESET TMJ Release as home and villa visits in Heraklion and Archanes, as well as working with wellness retreats across Crete. It feels good to be doing this work again. I’d forgotten how much I missed it.
I also work as a longevity coach over at The Liberated Longevity Coach, helping people in their 40s and 50s think seriously about their long-term health. The two sides of what I do complement each other well.
If you’re curious about whether a session might be right for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’m genuinely happy to have a chat before you commit to anything, no pressure, no hard sell. Just an honest conversation about how I might be able to help.
Warm regards,
Simon Henderson
