Back Pain: According to a study by the British Medical Journal (See Media Links), back pain was reduced 85% with lessons in the Alexander Technique.
Neck Pain: I began my study of the Alexander Technique when I had chronic neck pain, and have first-hand knowledge of how the Alexander Technique can provide support for long-term balance and healing.
Sciatica: Improper balance can result in undue pressure on the lower back and pelvis, leading to inflammation of the sciatic nerve.
Joint Replacement: Often joint replacement can be avoided, but if it is required, lessons in the Alexander Technique allow for healthy incorporation of the new joint into everyday movements.
Repetitive Stress Injuries: Lessons in the Alexander Technique provide understanding that allows choices not previously available. As we become aware of our reaction to stress responses, even repetitive activities become manageable.
