Significant long-term benefit has been demonstrated by a major NHS Trial for back pain and chronic back pain published in The British Medical Journal.
August 2008
Many people find great relief from back pain by practising the sophisticated set of ideas that constitute the Alexander Technique. Even serious long term conditions respond well.
Lower back pain is one of the most common health problems, experts seem unsure of the causes but there is a strong and growing recognition that poor posture and movement patterns are the most important factors.
One problem is that for most people advice about good posture is simplistic claptrap about pulling themselves up straight, tightening and holding onto parts of the body or pulling the shoulders back.
This approach does’nt work and can actually create more problems. Take a moment to consider the quality of a child’s body, no tension and pretty fantastic posture and movement patterns.
Alexander Technique has long been recognized as the best thing for backs. You will be taught what kind of movements put most strain on your back and how to avoid them. You will also learn how to release the tension patterns that are the root cause of the pain.
"After having Alexander Technique lessons with Chris for about 6 months,
the curvature of my spine stabilized and improved to such an extent that
my orthopedic doctor cancelled my imminent spinal operation, saying
it was no longer necessary. I thoroughly recommend anyone with a back
problem to try this wonderful technique."
Jenny Chisnall.
"My back is much better since I saw you."
Anne Totterdale – Film
critic
"I no longer suffer from the gut wrenching debilitating spasms,
no more heavy dull aching, and I can drive decent miles again. Alexander
Technique has given me my life back."
Mike Burr – Professor of
Infrastructure Management
"I was stunned at the difference learning Alexander Technique made – I don’t
get back pain anymore."
Sandra Sayer . Secretary . after six sessions.
