Discover Freedom of Movement and Natural Alignment | Blue Mountains Alexander Technique

After 20 years of chronic back pain, Kyle Stewart (pictured) felt that nothing could help overcome that condition. He was taking strong medication and working with daily discomfort.

Alexander lessons showed him new insightful ways to analyse his movement. He discovered that he was putting pivotal twisting pressure down onto his injury repeatedly, in many of is movements. He learned to redistribute his weight and modify his movement to take the pivoting pressure off the injury site. Kyle could notice the benefit of that almost immediately. During his course of lessons, he also learned other skills and strategies that he could use for improvement.

Kyle uses his Alexander skills every day to manage his back injury and to minimise the occurrence and intensity of pain episodes. I am grateful to Kyle for allowing me to share his story and hope that it helps you to understand a bit more about Alexander Technique and how it may also be useful to you.

What is the Alexander Technique?

Alexander Technique is like a very accurate instruction manual for human movement and psycho-physical functioning.  You can learn the simple instructions to provide immediate help. It surprising how much we don’t know about our own movement until someone shows us

Some people will  go on to learn the whole instruction manual because it is so interesting. They are able to apply very accurate movements to achieve their activities without discomfort.

Without the instructions it’s easy to go wrong. With the instructions things start to make sense.

Benefits

Elastic postural tone

The Alexander work encourages an easy uprightness marked by reduction in over-tension and better balance.

People are quite often surprised that they feel light and buoyant using Alexander principles.

Alexander Technique is not exercise, it’s neural re-education.

Reduction of chronic pain

People involved in chronic pain studies (click here) reported a significant and permanent reduction in the number of pain days that they experienced. Alexander Technique does not teach pain reduction techniques, nevertheless, one common outcome of the somatic education component in Alexander Technique is a reduction of pain conditions.

Improved performance

The Alexander work leads to a reduction of over-tension, greater accuracy and conservation of energy. These factors can augment good technique further in the performance of many skilled activities such as playing an instrument, speaking in public, sports and a range of other human endeavours.

A new outlook

FM Alexander suggested that we translate every experience into muscle tension. Letting go of over tightened muscles, finding easy balance and buoyant uprightness brings with it a new positive disposition and often an improved emotional flexibility.
