The Alexander Technique is available at our Kings Heath, Birmingham Therapy Centre.

What is Alexander Technique?

“You translate everything, whether physical or mental or spiritual, into muscular tension,” – F M Alexander

The Alexander Technique is often popularly seen as something to help a bad back or as a way of correcting posture. It is so much more than that. The Alexander Technique is a powerful tool that will enable you to perform everyday tasks and specialist activities with comfort and ease.

From experiencing vocal problems, Alexander carried out a lifelong study. He came to see that we often use excessive muscular tension in all our activities. Alexander learned that it is possible to carry out activities without the stresses and strains. He believed this was achieved by directing the power of the conscious mind.
