Alexander Technique Ealing

A skill for life We are all born with a natural grace that, when we are very young, enables us to move effortlessly. However, as we grow older, all sorts of things in our daily lives – physical and emotional experiences, learned behaviour, lifestyle and personal circumstances – interfere with this. These gradually become bad habits, ones so ingrained that we are hardly aware of them.

Before long, our bodies stop working properly. The result: back, neck and shoulder pain, stress, stiffness, breathlessness and poor co-ordination. Eventually we end up looking, feeling and even thinking old instead of moving gracefully as we once did

Is this decline inevitable? Absolutely not. The way our bodies work can be greatly improved by learning the Alexander Technique, a practical self-help method through which our neuro-muscular system is re-educated.

The Alexander Technique can help in many different ways:

it alleviates conditions associated with tension and poor posture
it produces greater poise and balance
it helps people to manage stress
it accelerates recovery following injury or illness
it allows disabled people to cope better.

Essentially the Technique improves the way we use ourselves – mind and body – in everyday life, how we move, rest, breathe, talk and react. Learning it can become a voyage of discovery that will help you for the rest of your life.
