Click here to watch a video about the Alexander Technique

This video is a great introduction to the Technique. It centers around the results of a large clinical study done in the UK. Published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ) in 2008, the study found Alexander Technique highly effective for treating back pain. It showed that participants experienced significant reduction in their level of pain or became pain free after studying the Technique.
