International NewsA British publication had the following to say recently:“You’ve probably heard the news that the Alexander Technique is great for reducing chronic back pain (unless, of course, it’s old news to you– in which case you may already have thought about having some AT lessons yourself!) From the UK, to India, to the USA, to Canada, to New Zealand; STAT has been busy telling the world about recent research published in the British Medical Journal, which showed Alexander Technique lessons give patients with chronic lower back pain important improvements in function, quality of life and reduce the number of days in pain. In fact, 24 Alexander Technique lessons reduce back pain by a colossal 85% - making it more effective than classical massage and normal GP care, or GP prescribed exercises alone. STAT has always known the Alexander Technique is effective for alleviating many different conditions, but now the rest of the world has cottoned on to its clinically-proven effect on back pain. The media has been raving about the research, with hundreds of pieces of media coverage worldwide. In the UK national papers alone there have been nine large articles. The Daily Mail announced: “An old cure for a modern malaise: Alexander Technique can beat chronic back pain”. The Daily Telegraph told its readers to “Sit up and take note of the best way to beat back pain”. And The Guardian proclaimed the “Alexander Technique does ease back pain”.
