Conditions Helped by the Alexander Technique:

At the risk of appearing to pretend that the Alexander Technique is a cure for all ills (which it isn't), I am listing some of the conditions that the Alexander Technique can help with:–

Arthritis, Asthma, Back Pain, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Chronic Pain Syndrome, Circulatory Problems, Constipation, Cramps, Digestive Disorders, Eyestrain, Face Pain, Hay Fever, Headache, Hernia, Injured Muscles, Insomnia, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Knee Pain, Leg Cramps, Low Back Pain, Migraine, Motion Sickness, Multiple Sclerosis, Muscle Pain, Nasal Congestion, Neck Problems, Osteoporosis, Pain, Parkinson's Disease, Performance Anxiety, Photophobia, Pregnancy Problems, Premenstrual Syndrome, Prolapse of the Uterus, Repetitive Strain Injury, Respiratory Ailments, Sciatica, Scoliosis, Shoulder Pain, Sinus Problems, Slipped Disc, Spondylitis, Strain, Stress, Stuttering, TMJ Syndrome, Tennis Elbow, Tired Eyes, Whiplash.

These conditions are very wide-ranging. Yet, they all have one thing in common. They share an underlying problem. The Alexander Technique solves it. Would you believe that all (that's right, all) treatments ignore this problem? Well, it's true!

The beauty, and the incomparable usefulness, of the Alexander Technique is precisely the way it homes in on the problem and deals with it.

How to use this site.

I have already written in detail about some of the conditions in the list, and in passing about others. The links above are to the most important reference I make to each. I hope to include more specific information when I have the time, but most of what you need to know is already there.

Every page you read should help you understand your condition better, so please make the most of it and read carefully and extensively.

Any questions you have, just e-mail me. I will give you a personal reply.

These pages are particularly important.

• The Alexander Technique exists to solve a very particular problem. Though you cannot afford to ignore this problem, very few people even know about it. Why? Find out.
• Learn more about debauched kinaesthesia. (Very important)
• Investigate how the Alexander Technique works.
• Why don't the experts really understand breathing? Even the most brilliant minds are confused by their own debauched kinaesthesia. Here, you can find out how it's meant to work.
• The same goes for posture. Most postural correction programmes are a well-meaning mess.
