ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE...

Enhancing Well-being

 

The Alexander Technique is a practical, common sense approach to problems of posture, muscular tension and badly co-ordinated body movement.

For many, it provides the complete answer in learning to manage the stresses and physical strains that characterise modern living.

The Alexander Technique concentrates on undoing deep-rooted tensional habits in how we sit, stand, walk and perform all of our daily activities.

It teaches us not only to use our body with tension free poise, but it is also an effective method in coping with stress.

"After practising the Alexander Technique, my family and I have noticed with growing amazement striking improvements in such diverse things as high blood pressure, breathing, depth of sleep, overall cheerfulness and mental alertness, resilience against outside pressures, and a refined skill in playing a stringed instrument."
