What is Alexander Technique?

Alexander Technique is a century-old, non-invasive, drug-free treatment method which reeducates people on how to support and move their bodies. It restores the body's natural movement and encourages the body to work efficiently. A 2008 British Medical Journal study put the Alexander Technique to the test and demonstrated that it was effective and provided sustainable relief.  It concluded that
"lessons in the Alexander technique from registered teachers have long term benefits for patients with chronic back pain." Learn more about the Alexander Technique.

Alexander Technique Consultations in California"I was introduced to Dominique and the Alexander Technique at a riding (dressage) clinic. Little did I know that it would also change my life!

At the age of six, I was in serious auto accident and by age twelve, I had developed a hunched posture and a painfully stiff lower back. I tried everything from weight training to massage therapy, and finally resigned myself to being an old man in posture and gait.

Within only a few weeks of Alexander lessons, I was straighter, less hunched and almost free of back stiffness and pain. I was walking energetically with an air of confidence and purpose.
Within six weeks of Alexander lessons, I was completely free of back pain!"
- Buddy Schencker, MD
 
Alexander technique classes"I love working with Dominique! Her training has improved my life in very measurable ways. Alexander lessons are the best investment in myself and my health I have ever made.

For the first time in my life since I was a kid, I am not grinding my teeth at night. I have also seen benefit in chronic shoulder, knee and wrist problems, and I am able to do sports, acting and music in a more relaxed, powerful and effective way.

I have been recommending Dominique to all my friends--she is an experienced and top practitioner in her field, fun and energizing to be around, and an inspiring teacher. I feel lighter and stronger after every session."
- Anna Newman, business professional


"When I first started seeing Dominique in 2004 I had no idea that something as seemingly simple as the Alexander Technique would change my life. Quite unexpectedly, I began to discover an inner source of resilience, strength, and confidence that had been dormant in me for a very long time. I began to participate in my own life in a completely new and more exciting way. Dominique gently, delightfully, and skillfully worked with me as I blossomed in her expert hands.


Just by using the techniques she has given me, I can change my aches and pains and my entire state into one of wonderful well-being and ease. If you're looking to do Alexander technique, Dominique Jacques is the very best practitioner you could ever hope to find".

-Jeannette Chiappone
