Power through Posture

I have now qualified as a Scar Therapy Practitioner and am looking forward to using these amazing skills in my practice.

Are you sitting uncomfortably?
At this time of year we can be sitting a lot: in the car driving to see family and friends, at lunches and evening events, at the computer finishing off last minute documents.
All of this can lead to being fixed in certain positions, unaware of what we are doing, then wondering why we have back and neck pain, headaches, muscle cramps.
This doesn't need to happen and can be avoided: a few minutes a day focusing on your movement and posture can make a huge difference. If you'd like to find out how, message me!

A favourite part of my work: talking to groups about the many benefits of the Alexander Technique. I had a great reception from this very enthusiastic group on a wet Monday morning.

If you are a member of a group in Hampshire, Berkshire or West Surrey who you think might be interested in finding out about an amazing technique for health and well being in all aspects of life and performance, please contact me!

Physiotherapy, Chiropractors, Osteopaths. All well known titles and what they help with is also well known and understood.

In many ways, I wish I had gone down one of these 'traditional' routes and qualified in a therapy that doesn't need constant explaining and questioning about 'what the benefits are' and 'what qualifications do you have'?

I have 3 years full time training (degree equivalent) in anatomy and physiology and human movement and correction.

I have 2 years training in naturopathic nutrition (including anatomy and physiology and the workings of the human body).

I have qualiifications in therapeutic massage (more anatomy and physiology) oncology massage. I have studied Iridology and Life-coaching.

I have recently completed and passed a level 3 (O level equivalent) course in dementia care and in 2 months time I am attending a Scar Therapy course. I love learning and passing this learning on to help others.

And yet with all this knowledge and training and over 30 years experience in helping people of all ages: from 7 years old to 90 years old, runners, cyclists, singers, actors and musicians, judges, CEO's etc, teaching students in private schools and at Southampton University, the awareness 'out there' of who I can help is continually decreasing.

The numbers of 'AT teachers' is dwindling, but the benefits are too great to lose.

Next time you are in pain, feel you or your child is slumping or that your performance at work or engaging in hobbies is waning, please consider THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE alongside the better known therapies.

As a younger person, the Alexander Technique can help with increasing your confidence and social skills.
As you age, the Alexander Technique can help you to maintain mobility and independence.
As a singer, dancer, actor, showjumper or other 'performer', the Alexander Technique can help elevate your skills to a higher level.

Let's not lose a method of re-education that has helped thousands for over 100years.

Thank you.
