ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE

This is a manipulative therapy that attempts to correct a range of disorders by improving posture. Its founder, F. Matthias Alexander, believed if the vertebrae were out of alignment it was due to misuse and the habits we develop such as slumping, tensing, and slouching. This in turn influences various parts of the body, such as the head, neck, and limbs, which then require adjustments. The process is repeated until the problems are corrected. This type of treatment works well with clients experiencing negative thinking, stress, and tension
