Did you know the muscles controlling your eye movements and neck are interconnected? This incredible connection is due to a complex network of nerves that control both these areas.
Your ocular motor muscles, a group of six muscles responsible for the movement of your eyes, are connected to your brainstem. Here, they intersect with the 11th cranial nerve, also known as the accessory nerve.
The accessory nerve is crucial for controlling the movement of your upper trapezius muscle. This large muscle in your neck and shoulder region helps support your head and neck. When your ocular motor muscles work correctly, they stimulate the accessory nerve, promoting the proper function of the upper trapezius muscle.
However, an imbalance in your eyes can affect the accessory nerve’s function, causing your upper trapezius muscle to become tight. This may lead to discomfort in your neck and shoulder region, poor posture, and reduced mobility.
To maintain overall body health, it’s essential to assess and address any imbalances or misalignments with your eyes. Incorporating eye exercises into your daily routine can go a long way towards ensuring your eyes and neck work together harmoniously.
In addition to this, Functional Activator is a great tool that can be used to retrain your tongue. The Functional Activator is designed to have you position your tongue in its physiological position, at the top of your palate.
