Alexander Technique Lessons in the Berkshires

I started studying the Alexander Technique after suffering with tendinitis in my right wrist and elbow for months. I play the violin as my hobby and spend many hours a day on the computer. Typing, violin, and everyday activities had become very difficult and painful, and conventional therapies had not helped. After only a few sessions I noticed a reduction in pain, and an increased sense of balance and coordination, despite the fact that we never focused our work on the joints affected. I was able to stop taking anti-inflammatory and pain medications.

I think Andrew has a unique sense of the principles that relate the mind to the body, and he approaches his work with good humor, enthusiasm and a scientific curiosity for figuring out what works best for each of his students.
