Alexander Technique



Named after its creator, Fredrick Mathias Alexander, the Alexander Technique is a process designed to retrain your posture and habitual ways of moving your body. The idea is that we have trained ourselves to move in inefficient and potentially harmful ways, and this technique re-trains your body to move more efficiently and in alignment with your joints, muscles, and overall health. This technique has been found to lower blood pressure, improve voice issues and clear the throat, improve coordination, help you stand taller, and create better balance.
