The Alexander Technique is an educational process that teaches the student how to deal with unwanted and unnecessary tension producing habits that lead to misuse of the body. These habits are often the cause of ailments such as excess tension in the neck and shoulders, headaches, back and neck pain, postural issues, vocal problems and repetitive strain injuries. The Technique is taught one to one as each person requires individual attention in this process. Alexander Technique is a unique and personal study of movement and dynamic posture, not a healthcare treatment. It allows the individual to identify and understand their movement patterns , improve coordination, reduce patterns of excess tension, free up breathing, and develop deeper kinesthetic awareness. Alexander Technique is well known to be utilized by performers of all types, from public speakers, to athletes and actors looking to find more ease, confidence and self-awareness of their movements.

Osteopaths are functional anatomists who use manual therapy and gentle manipulations to restore proper body mechanics, nerve impulses and the circulation of cardiovascular, digestive, lymphatic and spinal cord fluids. Classical osteopathy considers both soft tissue (fascia, muscles, tendons) and hard tissues (bones, ligaments), while also paying attention to the nerves, arteries, veins and lymphatics in the area, and also has consideration for what is happening on the visceral level. With a knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics, osteopaths use just their hands to figure out what isn't functioning normally, and then use gentle manipulations to get the body back into alignment so that it can self heal and regulate.
