Part II - How can learning and using the Alexander Technique enable us to reduce and better manage chronic pain?
This month, we release part II of a conversation with researchers and Alexander teachers Mari Hodges and Tim Cacciatore, as they discuss their recent work on pain with Julia Woodman. They continue to explore the shift from a bio-medical to a bio-psycho-social model of pain, delve into potential mechanisms for pain reduction observed in research participants, and discuss future research plans.
How can learning and using the Alexander Technique enable us to reduce and better manage chronic pain?
In our 42nd ASO newsletter, researchers and Alexander teachers, Mari Hodges and Tim Cacciatore talk with Julia Woodman about their recent work on pain. They relate the revolution in pain science – from a bio-medical to a bio-psycho-social model – to how Alexander teachers can use this knowledge when working with people living with chronic (persistent) pain. This is the first of a two-part interview-based post.
ATLAS commentary Parts III and IV
This blog makes up the final two interviews of the series in which Julia Woodman BSc, PhD, MSTAT talks about the ATLAS trail with Charlotte Woods EdD, MSTAT. They delve into the background to this important trial and review the findings, including looking at the experiences of the participants in the trial. They also discuss how ATLAS sits alongside the ATEAM trial to form the foundation of the evidence base for the effectiveness of Alexander lessons.
ATLAS commentary Parts I and II
In the first two videos of a series of four interviews, Julia Woodman BSc, PhD, MSTAT talks about the ATLAS neck pain trial with Charlotte Woods EdD, MSTAT. They delve into the background to this important trial and review the findings, including looking at the experiences of the participants in the trial. They also discuss how ATLAS sits alongside the ATEAM trial to form the foundation of the evidence base for the effectiveness of Alexander lessons.
