Thanks... I just looked at a little bit about it (although not in depth) and it seems interesting. I know posture can make a difference.

I know I've had issues with my lower back when I sit up straighter and try to correct my posture (leaning back brings the pain at L5 and S1 due to stenosis and small herniations). In physical therapy (for my lower back) they helped some with my posture but again it tended to aggravate the pain when doing it correctly (for some reason).

I'll have to check it out for my neck a little more and see if it would help. The little bit I looked at it (the Alexander Technique) seem to be centered on back pain (nothing mentioned about neck pain), but because it tries to correct the whole-body alignment I would assume it would likewise be good for the neck.

I'll check it out more...
