Research has found that the Alexander Technique can help people with chronic (uncomplicated) neck pain and chronic back pain.
A randomised control trial looked at the effects of 24 one-to one Alexander Technique lessons on chronic back pain and found a reduction in days in pain from 21 to 3 days and lasting benefits one year later (Little et al. 2008).
Chronic or recurrent low back pain has been found to be helped by a 10 lesson Alexander Technique intervention combining small group classes with individual lessons
(Little et al. 2022).
A randomised trial found significant reductions in neck pain and associated disability after 20 Alexander Technique lessons one year after lessons
(ATLAS trial, MacPhearson et al. 2015)
Alexander lessons improved the way people lived their daily lives and managed their pain. People experienced improved self-efficacy and self-care along with a long term reduction in chronic neck pain
(Woodman et al. 2017)
Lying down in a semi supine position, as pictured, can be taught in Alexander lessons. This helpful Constructive Rest practice can ease both back and neck, tension and pain. For the best results it is taught hands on by a registered Alexander teacher who can make helpful adjustments and provide sensitive proprioceptive feedback to stimulate muscles into releasing deeply held tension. This can help break the vicious cycle of tension and pain.
