Learn how to get relief from persistent pain

Pain lingering after an injury has healed or without a clear cause is common, but it doesn’t have to be permanent

Why the Alexander Technique is different

Most pain treatments focus on the part of the body that hurts. Even though pain in the shoulder, back, or neck is real, it’s often the result of how the whole body is working. The Alexander Technique addresses the whole system, rather than managing the symptom, so that real and lasting change becomes possible.

What that looks like in practice

Through hands-on guidance and a practical learning process, you develop an understanding of what’s driving the pain and the skills to do something about it.
As this is not a passive treatment, you build skills you carry with you into daily life, work, movement, everything.
Developing this independence is a primary goal of the Alexander Technique.

What the journey looks like

Most people notice something in the first few sessions – reduced pain, a sense of ease, a shift in how they’re carrying themselves, and a realisation that change is possible after all.
Over eight to ten sessions, skills develop and real change occurs. People begin to apply what they’ve learned between lessons. Looking back, most find the pain that brought them to the Alexander Technique has significantly reduced, or gone.
The number of sessions varies, and Jenny will always be honest about what she’s seeing and what makes sense for your situation.

“Before seeing Jenny, I had almost one year of lower back pain, to the point where it prevented me from working and affected my daily acts of living. I had tried many other approaches without success. After two weeks of seeing Jenny, I was 60% better. I continued for several more months and had a complete recovery. The skills I learned from Jenny will be with me for life.“

What AT works with

Jenny most commonly works with musculoskeletal pain – neck, back, shoulders, hips – especially where it’s persisted. Also recovery from injury or surgery where progress has stalled, and pain linked to performance pressure, stress, or anxiety.
