Hi, I’m Dr. Michael Cuthbertson, manual physical therapist, owner of a private practice, and founder of Get Physio Fit. I'm a reserved and reluctant educator with an urgent message so important that I've chosen to step out of my comfort zone to bring it to you. My desire is to educate you to avoid experiences of a broken healthcare system. Competing as a division I wrestler, I had injury after injury, and was treated with medications, steroid injections, and 8 surgeries. The root causes of my injuries weren't addressed. At 25 yrs old, doctors said I wouldn't be able to run, jump, or squat again and if I were older I'd need a hip replacement. I became a PT to defy the limitations placed on me and others like me. I've learned how to live an active and pain free lifestyle, empower my patients to do the same, and am now on a journey to restore hope to your life. You are capable and don't have to be limited by pain. Your potential is within reach.

I don't snore? But my tongue is weak I am swallowing my tongue!😢😢😢
If you make the exhale a little longer then the inhale it will activate the parasympathetic nervous system making it even more relaxing.
Thank you ❤
You're welcome!
How many times we should so
THANKS FOR YOUR TIPS TO CALM VAGUS NERVE WITH OUR EYES,DEAR Dr.MICHAEL.
You’re welcome!
Look down? I read that we're supposed to look at 3 'o clock. That's how I always do it. Calms me down.
yes
Why is it " The best " ?
it’s paining not got relief thnx doc ❤
Glad to help!
Thanks for your tips.
I don't find it particularly relaxing to do this
when im look right down i activate then the right vagus nerve? Because i need just input in the right vagus nerve
Better way is to do Pranayam , Asanas to activate vagus nerve.
I do the exercises laid down on the back without pillow . it adds some gravity and more real life situation.
Thanks.
Very true!!
Wow! Amazing! 🥳
🧡🍁🧡
Excellent 👍🙏
My right eye (after several minutes) I never got any kind of response. The left eye after several minutes got a slight yawn.
how often can we do this exercise?
Thanks for giving very important information
You’re welcome!
could be great to have a better understanding of the finer position
I have a decline bench my husband recently bought. This was my only concern, if one does not have this type of bench. I can’t wait to try it out. Thanks so much!
I have CVS, the way you are laying is usually how I pass out. I'm starting to wonder if this is what's been calming me at my brink without noticing it 😮 This is gold!!!
Can you do this while taken your blood pressure?
My eyes hurted
very smart using the eyes for this. I have always figured the eyes operate as a kind of mouse, different positions activate differnet parts of the brain, and can retrieve otherwise hard to recall memories.
Gave a big old yawn with each downward gaze and felt my shoulders relax. Thanks!
Thank your very much. Awesome!
You're very welcome!
Thank you very much. Awesome informations!
This was super relaxing and made my eyes feel great.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, so well presented and clear. Thank you so much.
You're very welcome!
This help with PotS?
So interesting! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I started yawning during these eye exercises, which is another sign of resetting the vagus nerve.
Same here
❤
Today's kids can't read an analogue clock.
Extremely helpfull. Thanks
You're welcome!
I saw a slight variation of this? Same movement with your eyes, but cover one eye and move your eyes to the side and down, back and forth for 10 seconds. Then cover your other eyes and do the same. Have you seen this variation?
What does it mean is moving in one direction is more challenging than in the other? What does one do? For example, I find moving my eyes to the left more unsettling than the right. Thanks.
This helped my mom totally! thank you so much. Is there any exercise that she could do to strengthen her back so she doesnt get so much pain?
Glad to hear that this helped her! This is a great one to do- ua-cam.com/video/nXmccTjiS-o/v-deo.htmlsi=JCzT3JTwoIl_-W10
This hurts.
This looks very much like an exercise from the Paula method - the ring muscles by Paula Garbourg.
Wow
This one really helped after the doorbell rang and I jumped up and no one was there. Came back and did the vagus eye exercise my heart was pounding and immediately stop pounding. Amazing. Thanks. KCMary. 😊🙏😊.
What happen to you. Just found you and your demonstrations are great. Need your balance exercises. KCMary. Great exercise. 😊🙏😊
Thank you! I hope this helps.
also, look up at your eyebrows to a low strain - reset those neurons 🙃
For those of us who wear glasses, we are trained to never look at extreme angles. Our peripheral vision also suffers. Because it's all frames and blur at that angle! So our eyes stay roughly in the center at all times. I can feel how unnatural this is; I regularly take breaks to "stretch" my eyes and roll them.
Gives me a headache.
I used to get my caesarean patients to do this when they first got up for a shower after surgery. It grounds them :)
