Learning The Famous Alexander Technique

By Enid Hinton


Stress is very evident in the world today because of the very fast paced lifestyle that each and every human being has to live with. This stressful lifestyle is actually one of the factors that would contribute to people having more stress and having some physical problems because of it. Now one of the best ways that people were able to confront these stressors was through the alexander technique.

The one who came up with this technique was actually an actor from Australia who goes by the name of Frederick Alexander. He actually had a condition that was known as chronic laryngitis which could not actually be cured by any of the doctors he went to during his time. Of course with a little bit of luck, he was able to create a method to help him release tension in his neck which was actually the cause of everything.

Teachers of this method believe that the body makes habitual movements all the time. Because of these movements, the muscles have the tendency to tighten. It is because of this kind of tightening that one feels pain.

Now if one would enroll in one of these classes, he will first be assessed by the teacher. The teacher has to first see the condition of his students in order to let them do some exercises. Of course the teachers would be advising their students to come in comfortable clothes so that they can be able to relax during their exercises.

Now one thing to remember is that this exercise is not strenuous at all and can be done by those who are not very physically fit. It is not like other stretching exercises wherein one would need to strain his muscles and do poses or other types of strenuous things. This is in fact a very relaxing type of workout wherein one is actually going slow and following the pace of his own body.

Now during the first few meetings of the class, one will usually be doing some exercises related to everyday movements like walking, running, or even sitting down. From there, the teachers will be checking how they do it to see if there are parts in the body that are tightening. From there, the teacher will be able to advise the students on what they should do about those tightened body parts.

Some of the benefits that one can gain from learning this technique would be first less body pains. If one is prone to such body pains such as backaches, sore necks, or any other type of muscle pain, then this method can actually do wonders for him as it would help lessen these pains. Another thing that this method does is lessen stress in the body which means that after doing some exercises, one will actually feel less stressed.

So for those who would often have body aches, this method is definitely very helpful. The great thing about it is that this method is getting very popular in America. It is in fact very popular in NYC because there are so many people with high levels of stress there.
