Several studies have researched how movement and balance of older people changes after learning the Alexander Technique. One pilot study (Glover et al) also uses focus group discussions to explore older people’s experiences of learning the Technique.
I was looking for some way to help manage my lower back problems without relying on pain relief medication. I have found my one-to-one AT sessions extremely helpful and have learnt to identify and avoid postures and actions that contribute to back pain. I now know how to relax and properly rest my back and neck. In my experience, AT is a whole body technique which can help one to be more self-aware and to understand how to move with less tension and consequently, with less effort. Hurray for AT!
