I am an osteopath and you should do this daily 15 second eye exercise to improve your vision and posture

An osteopath has shared his quick and easy eye exercise that people should do every day to maintain focus and visual stability.

Brendon Talbot reminded his fans not to neglect their eye muscles, which can benefit from daily stretching.

The Canadian doctor, who specializes in bone and muscle tissue, said doing his 15-second eye exercise every day can strengthen muscles, help with balance and even improve posture.

“There are six main muscles responsible for controlling the movement of each eye,” Brendon explains in an online video.

‘The eye muscles play a crucial role in enabling the eye to shift focus and maintain visual stability.

He said there is an exercise that people can do on a daily basis to strengthen these important muscles.

Brendon showed an image in which a glowing green dot moves across the screen in a zigzag motion.

Viewers must follow the moving dot with their eyes to stretch and strengthen the muscles.

The eye muscles have a direct relationship with those in the neck, which can affect posture.

Those with low vision may overstrain, tilt, or lean forward to see something, causing the neck and back muscles to tighten and become maladjusted.

Brendon’s clip was flooded with appreciative comments from his 1.8 million social media followers.

“It actually feels good,” said one woman while another joked, “Thanks bro, now I have 10x zoom.”

“I need all the help I can get for the eyes!” added a third.

“Sorry bro, I can’t beat legs with you, today is eyes day,” someone else laughed.

How Can Weak Eye Muscles Give You Bad Posture?

The eye is the organ that locates us in relation to the horizon. The eye is not just a part of vision; it is also (with the foot) one of the main receptors of the postural system.

When muscles that move the eyes are out of balance, our perception of the environment changes and the whole body tries to compensate for that phenomenon.

In doing so, shifts and rotations of the shoulders and pelvis occur and posture alignment suffers.

The muscles of the eyes have a direct relationship with the neck muscles.

When an asymmetry is found with the muscles responsible for movement of the eyeball, there will be an asymmetry with the muscles of the neck.

This will lead to increased muscle tension in the neck, shoulders and spine in general. Tightness and lack of range of motion increase.

He said to tuck your chin in as far as you can and gently push it back and down and then use your other hand to turn the head down.

Brendon said that by doing this you should feel a stretch in your neck.

He noted that doing one exercise won’t change your posture, but implementing a daily exercise routine can help improve it over time.

Many of Brendon’s 1.7 million followers were grateful for the advice with one saying: “I needed this.”

‘Thank you! I sent this video to my hunky hunky husband,” a woman replied.
