MFK Method: Information Science in Physiotherapy and its relevance to the Alexander Technique
MFK METHOD is a comprehensive and highly effective approach to physiotherapy. It combines the hands-on work with a unique computer software system. This combination translates subjective findings of the musculoskeletal system into a simple visual imagery, and this visual representation enables the client to engage further in the healing process. Even though the method was originally developed for physiotherapists, it has been successfully used by other bodywork professionals as well.
As Alexander teachers we do not want to limit ourselves to working with muscle testing only. However, I found that providing some students with a clear visual image of disbalancies caused by insufficient engagement of certain muscle groups helps them to see the interdependence of the whole system. The MFK software is also very useful in recording injuries, painful areas and other changes and projecting them on the final image – a great way of keeping notes. In my experience, the MFK method can become a useful complementary tool for the Alexander Technique teachers.
