Medical Study proves lasting effectiveness of the Alexander Technique for low back pain.
Published in the prestigious British Medical Journal on 19 August 2008, this randomised controlled medical trial compares Alexander Technique lessons, exercise and massage for chronic and recurrent back pain.
“My teacher is Philip Pawley and I can thoroughly recommend him: he’s patient, kind and knows what he’s doing. He’s given me a new life.”
“My interest in the Technique came from my interest in yoga. At the time when I heard about it, I thought that this would be a useful thing for me to learn — just a development of what I understood yoga to be.”
“Since starting with the Alexander Technique, it has boosted my confidence tremendously. It does so much more besides just helping you with the osteoporosis.”
“I have got enormous benefit out of a series of thirty-minute sessions with Philip Pawley. My whole stance has improved and I’m singing better.”
The above are short excerpts from a 7-minute video. See the whole video on YouTube

Great web site. Your writing on breathing is excellent. Glad to read that other people know the down side of over cooking the core and becoming an ant. I think Thomas Hanna called it the “dark vise”.
I am a myofascial practitioner and like to surf the web for sites I could share with my clients and yours is a definite one.
Be well,
Anonio
