“...The demands of modern life have fostered a virtual epidemic of neck, back, and other problems
related to misaligned posture and improperly tensed muscles. Basically, the Alexander Technique
helps people with chronic pain and tension shed long-established habits and relearn how to use
their bodies with ease and grace.”
—Jane Brody, New York Times
