About Heidi

Heidi Armstrong trained in Swedish massage in 1993 after the birth of her first son. She then pursued a full-time holistic therapies course, expanding her expertise to include Reflexology and Aromatherapy, and further developed her massage training with MTI. In 2001, Heidi graduated from the Bristol School of Shiatsu.

Throughout her career, Heidi has consistently worked with pregnant women. In 2006, she deepened her passion by completing a postgraduate course in Maternity care with the Well Mother organization. Subsequently, Heidi became one of their teachers, training therapists to work specifically in pregnancy.

Over 15 years ago, Heidi embarked on a journey to teach complementary therapies. She has shared her knowledge at various schools, including Bath City College and Bath School of Shiatsu and Yoga, where she continues to teach. Heidi instructs advanced massage courses at BCMB Bristol and imparts Anatomy and Physiology knowledge on the Yoga Bohdi Yoga Teacher Training in Bath.

In 2013, Heidi assumed leadership of the Bath School of Reflexology, originally founded by Rosalind Oxenford, who had been her inspiring Reflexology teacher years before. Under Heidi's guidance, the school has evolved into a College for Complementary Therapies, focusing on CPD courses for therapists.
