"I’ve suffered from occasional and at times quite severe lower back pain for over twenty years and after trying several pain management strategies involving years of yoga and Pilates classes, as well as regular osteopathy, decided to have a go at the Alexander Technique. It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with Hilary and her invaluable insights and advice have led to my longest pain-free period ever (it’s now been six months and counting). Unexpected benefits include a much calmer approach to work and family challenges and a general sense of physical ease and relaxation. I would wholeheartedly recommend trying AT with Hilary whose intelligence and talent for physical analysis makes for a very rich experience".          John ~ Teacher and Writer
