Build Better Balance With Eye Movements (3 Minute Exercise!)

Показать описание
Balance is an essential aspect of our everyday lives, affecting everything from athletic performance to overall stability. And, if you've ever tried balancing exercises with your eyes closed you already know how critical vision is to balance.

Beyond this, however, research has shown some really interesting connections between eye movements and foot function that play a key role in your balance. This means that by incorporating targeted eye movements into our training regimen, we can unlock new levels of balance and coordination.

Today, we're going to explore this research by practicing a 3 minute exercise focused on horizontal saccades — rapid eye movements that have a profound impact on our ability to maintain balance.

Many of our clients are often amazed at the immediate improvements they experience in balance, proprioception, and overall body control after just their first practice session and we hope you find it very useful, too!

you are the only therapist that makes any sense of my issues. When I watch tv or scroll on the computer I get a moving sensation and then I noticed it happening when my feet aren't firmly on the ground. I will continue to do these exercises because I don't get any straight answers from doctors on why this is happening to me.

Wow - at 71 years old, this could explain why balance while running on a treadmill is much more problematic for me than balance running outside, where eyes are constantly changing focused objects.

Wow this is super useful to me as I was in a motorcycle accident and my right foot was twisted off and surgically reattached.

Do the saccades while standing only on 1 foot or while on 2 feet and then retest?
