Customer Rating:      Summary: Great start for people with back, neck or joint problems Comment: I got this one out from the local library and was surprised there wasn't a review yet. I guess the Alexander Technique is not very well known. But this is great stuff - and I should have realised that my years of back problems were due to all the stresses placed on my back by bad posture and trying to stay propped up for long periods no matter what the cost.
There is a lot of material in this video - over two hours worth. A great intro to what it's all about and then a second part where they go into practical applications. Sitting at the office, reading in a chair, reading in bed, even eating at the table, etc - all things that have become a problem for me over the years.
All in all - I think the basic awareness of the specific problem postures will now be of immense value. Then coupled with some back exercises to get some more strength in there (which I'll have to get somewhere else) I think the chronic back pain will become a thing of the past.
