Скачать или смотреть Romberg Head Turns (Eyes Open) - Improve Balance & Vestibular Control!

Description:
The Romberg Head Turns (Eyes Open) exercise is a dynamic balance drill designed to enhance vestibular function, coordination, and postural stability. By maintaining balance while turning your head side to side, this exercise challenges your inner ear (vestibular system), visual tracking, and proprioceptive control, helping you move with greater confidence and steadiness. It’s a great progression for those working on vestibular rehabilitation, concussion recovery, or general balance training.

Muscles Targeted:
Core Stabilizers
Gluteus Medius & Maximus
Quadriceps & Hamstrings
Calves & Ankle Stabilizers
Cervical (Neck) Muscles

Benefits & Purpose:
Enhances vestibular and visual coordination
Improves postural stability during head motion
Strengthens lower body balance and alignment
Reduces dizziness and promotes confidence in daily movement

6 Easy Step Instructions:
1. Starting Position: Stand with your feet together (Romberg stance) on a firm surface, arms relaxed at your sides.
2. Set Alignment: Keep your posture tall, core engaged, and eyes focused on a fixed point ahead.
3. Head Turns: Slowly turn your head side to side (“no” motion) while maintaining your gaze stable on the target.
4. Control: Keep movements smooth and controlled — avoid quick or jerky motions.
5. Duration: Perform for 20–30 seconds, rest briefly, and repeat for 2–3 sets.
6. Progression: Once stable, try performing the exercise on foam or with a narrower stance for added difficulty.

Tips for Success:
Move slowly and deliberately—focus on quality, not speed.
Keep your eyes open and fixed on a single point.
Breathe evenly throughout the exercise.
Avoid shrugging or tensing your shoulders.

Perform near a stable surface or wall for safety if needed.
