The Role of Cranial Sacral Work in Alexander Technique

The Alexander technique is kind of the king of consciousness methods. It really is all about being aware of what's going on and then using your own mental faculties to change those. The cranial sacral work by contrast is, at least from what I can see, the king of getting at subtle, heart-elusive, complex patterns. At the other end of the spectrum would be things like Pilates or maybe some kinds of physical therapy that are designed to systematically strengthen certain muscles or muscle groups.
