Body problems? Try the Alexander Technique
Movement specialist Amy Ward Brimmer offers individual sessions in Yardley (or online) that give you the power to heal and grow.

Have you heard of the Alexander Technique? If you have pain, excess tension, are recovering from an accident or illness, or want to refine your performance of any activity, the Alexander Technique (AT) can help you.
Do you feel routinely overwhelmed by the constant barrage of information and other stimuli coming at you every day? Do you sometimes feel shut down and disconnected from yourself and others? AT is the work that reintegrates. It is a completely sustainable approach to living.
“Alexander Technique allows me to feel calm and clear no matter what I am doing,” explains financial CEO Mark. “It helps me be aware at work, in exercise, and in every daily task. Each lesson leaves me with a dollop of mindfulness to spread throughout whatever happens next.”

AT is well-known among performing artists, but this body-mind method of learning to relieve pain, improve posture, and increase ease has been around for over a century and helps people from all walks of life. Amy Ward Brimmer is a certified Alexander specialist and offers personalized instruction and hands-on healing at her home studio in Yardley (or online if you prefer).
A simple and powerful approach to conscious living, Alexander Technique teaches how to do what you do, in both everyday activities and specialized situations, producing the skills you need to move mindfully through life. Taking lessons offers the opportunity to take charge of your own learning and healing process, because it’s not a series of passive treatments. It’s an active exploration that changes the way you think and respond to whatever life throws your way. Alexander lessons leave you feeling lighter, freer, and more grounded.

“Amy's expertise and gentle help has taught me a lot about how to use and move my body optimally,” says Penny, a massage therapist. “Her guidance and nurturing touch helped me improve my posture and now I’m more aware of how I move. Not only does this deepen my connection with my clients so they get a better massage, I’m straining less and have more energy as a result.”
College professor Maren agrees. “The Alexander Technique has helped me dispel the creakiness that comes with age and my lessons leave me feeling like I have well-oiled joints from head to toe. My Alexander work has energized and empowered me.”
