Alexander Technique

Alexander Technique in Manchester, Stockport, Wilmslow, Macclesfield and throughout Cheshire.

You can use Alexander Technique to help your back pain, improve your posture, for singing and voice, acting, and sports performance. It’s also great if you get neck and back pain, if you suffer from RSI, or if you just get uncomfortable sitting at your computer. I work with everyone from teachers and nurses, actors and singers, to company directors. Everyone from teenagers to people in their eighties. An NHS study proved Alexander Technique can reduce days with low back pain by 86%. If you want to take back control of your body, your posture and your reactions to stress, it’s for you. And because you can try my Alexander Technique sessions in Manchester, Stockport, Wilmslow, Macclesfield and around Cheshire, you’ll find me easy to get to. The Alexander Technique is a way to feel better, more relaxed and comfortable by working with your mind-body connection. It’s the latest fitness sensation that the celebrities and the rest of us are flocking to. And it works! 86% less back pain: proven.

Celebrities aren’t the only ones to benefit.

There’s a way we handle ourselves – an overall poise, not just the working of this muscle, or that muscle. It’s what happens when we decide to move – we can either be expansive and conscious, or (the more common modern way)… tightening up with stress and worry and using ourselves on autopilot. When my new clients come to me and say “My back’s hurting me”, I usually reply “No, you’re hurting your back.” It’s how we act and move that makes the difference.

This isn’t about learning how to control each little muscle separately. That would be almost impossible! It’s about learning how our interface between thought and movement works – your mind/body connection, so that we can move consciously and gracefully in everything we do… like Marilyn Monroe (she studied the Alexander Technique!)

Pick it up and you can stop giving yourself backache or RSI, shoulder and neck pain, so you can stop stooping as you get older, hunching as you concentrate, or slumping as you sit. And all of this leads to a more pleasant, enjoyable way of living. Which means whatever your age and fitness level, you can age gracefully, with more poise and less pain. You can sing better, act better, play sport better, and get much more out of life. No other programme has been proven, by randomised control trial, to help you more.
