“The Vestibular System: Nervous System Training for Movement Efficiency” - Improving Movement through Sensory Input (Part 2)

Getting movement into your day-to-day routine is a powerful tool to keep you healthy and increase your strength, mobility, and independence. When you are able to combine movement with training your nervous system, your body can integrate the results in a more embodied way. One way to train your nervous system is to give your vestibular system a “workout”. Your vestibular system is a sensory system in your inner ear that tells your brain where and how your body is oriented in space. It helps with balance and head stabilization during movement.

During this session, you will explore how working on your vestibular system through head, neck, and eye movements can improve your proprioception (positional body awareness), range of motion, and even help with pain. We will take you through a handful of vestibular exercises alongside simple movements as we progress through the session. Join us in training your nervous system to create more awareness of your body and build more efficient movement patterns.
