Back Pain Relief with Alexander Technique – Move Freely Again
Looking for a sustainable way to manage back pain? Alexander Technique lessons offer a unique approach to finding relief by changing the habits that cause tension.
How Alexander Technique Can Help With Back Pain
Chronic back pain often comes from unconscious tension patterns and poor posture habits. The Alexander Technique teaches you to identify and release these patterns, so your body can move naturally, comfortably, and without strain. Many clients notice relief after just a few lessons.

A 2008 BMJ study found that Alexander Technique lessons significantly reduce chronic back pain and improve function, making it one of the most effective non-invasive treatments available.
Benefits of Lessons Include:
- Reduce tension and break the cycle of pain
- Discover better balance and coordination
- Move with greater ease and mobility
- Prevent recurring pain by changing posture and movement habits
What Happens in a Lesson
Each session is personalised to your needs. We’ll explore your posture and movement habits, identify tension patterns, and practice gentle techniques to release them. You’ll gain practical skills to sit, stand, and move safely in everyday life, easing back strain from the first lesson.
Lessons involve gentle guidance through the teacher’s hands, helping you recognise and stop patterns of bracing and tension. This allows you to rediscover natural balance, improve posture, and move with greater ease and comfort.
