I’m excited to announce another published paper about how the Alexander Technique helps Parkinson’s Disease. Congratulations to the Poise Project!
Alexander Technique Awareness Week | Research Spotlight
How can the Alexander Technique support people living with Parkinson’s disease?
A newly published, peer-reviewed study from The Poise Project explores the benefits of Poised for Parkinson’s, an online Alexander Technique curriculum designed to address both motor and non-motor challenges.
The study reported encouraging results, including:
✨ Improvements in self-reported symptom management, particularly drooling, falls, posture, and gait.
✨ Improvements in objective measures of functional reach and proactive inhibitory control.
✨ Benefits that were observed at a six-month follow-up.
These preliminary findings highlight the potential of the Alexander Technique to support people living with Parkinson’s disease and their family care partners.
We’re excited to celebrate the growing body of Alexander Technique research and share its potential with a wider community!
