Essential viewing for the millions of sufferers of Repetitive Stress Injury and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and those that are unable to sit or stand for long periods without pain, this informative, 90-minute video offers relief almost immediately. The Alexander Technique (AT) is a full-body system for optimizing movement through subtle changes in body mechanics that, when learned, can be put into daily use. Not exactly exercises, but a re-education of the mind in relation to body movements, AT helps the body release unrecognized tension that results from improper alignments. Created by a Shakespearean actor who had trouble projecting without straining his voice, the Alexander Technique has been used by actors and non-actors for the last fifty years and continues to attract followers. In this program, common, everyday situations are covered including sitting at a desk, lifting bags of groceries, and even driving a car, all enhanced to relieve muscle stress by proper alignment. The program is introduced by Oscar-winning actor William Hurt and his personal AT teacher, Jane Kominsky, who gives an excellent short history of the technique.
