Many studies have shown that studying the Alexander Technique can help those living with PD improve balance, reduce rigidity and back pain; enhance sleep, mood and quality of life; and it also decreases the speed at which symptoms worsen and medication levels need to increase.
Performance |
F.M. Alexander, himself an actor who struggled with vocal problems, perfected a technique in which actors could better use their body and voice with grace and ease. This enhanced use of the self creates an actor who is more spontaneous, believable, and watchable.
There are many ways to stand up, sit down, or even hold your child. Most people have a habitual way in which they do these activities. We do them so often, wouldn’t it be nice to master this skill and many others so that you are free of pain?
