The Bates Method

View More Posts
Have any of you heard of the Bates method? I am wondering if this natural method of exercises, eye rest and various things would work with MD. I remember going to a lecture about this years ago and vowing I would do the exercises and things as a matter of course - bought the book and everything.

Would be interested to know if any of you have had experience of this?
