Oculomotor exercises are designed to improve eye movement control, coordination, and visual tracking.
Postural exercises help strengthen core muscles, improve alignment, and enhance stability. They are essential for maintaining proper posture, preventing pain, and reducing the risk of musculoskeletal imbalances.
Neck stretching and strengthening exercises help improve flexibility, reduce stiffness, and enhance muscle support for the cervical spine. They are beneficial for relieving neck pain, improving posture, and preventing injuries.
