I spent many years trying to find relief from
the pain and discover why I had it. Eventually I discovered through the Alexander Technique that I was largely causing the problem
myself. As a child I had unconsciously copied my father's posture and set up years of pain and discomfort, just as my father
had done. I had tried to sit up straight and have 'good posture', but that was exhausting and didn't work. With the help
of an Alexander Technique teacher I was gradually able to undo more and more of the tension and misuse I was applying
to myself and regain an easy posture that grew out of not pulling myself about in the wrong direction. I also discovered that
I had a congenital problem with the head of my femur, which using the Alexander Technique I can manage to the best of my ability.
Consequently I am now I have a freedom of movement that I was completely unaware was possible and am no longer limited
in life by back pain.
The Alexander Technique can be surprisingly
helpful for a huge range of problems because a large number of problems are a consequence of compression and bad postural
use of ourselves.
The only way to find out if Alexander Technique
lessons are of interest is to give it a go. The work is non-invasive and can be taken at a pace that will suit you,
so please call to arrange a lesson and we can see what happens. It should be possible to see in a very few lessons if the
work will have any benefits to you.
