Back pain, neck and shoulder tension, breathing difficulties and many stress-related disorders are often the consequences of misusing the body during activity. Over time, this misuse can turn into a habit, and we become so accustomed to the resulting tension that, unless we are in pain, we rarely notice it.

The Alexander Technique is a method for identifying and letting go of these unwanted habits. This allows you to use the appropriate amount of muscular effort for any activity you engage in whether simple such as walking or complex like playing a musical instrument or practicing a martial art. ​The technique is not yoga, massage or religion. It is a 130-year old proven neuromuscular re-education method, which is not limited to the workplace or medical rehabilitation.
