I suggest eyes open because someone may lose their balance with the eyes shut. For a senior citizen, this can happen while seated as well, hence the suggestion. A traction pulley at the PT office is different than using your arm over your head: the pull from the pulley is even and the force from the arm over the head is not. Great questions, and Thanks!
good video. Why keep the eyes open it is very calming doing it with the eyes shut? Is this because of balance if so why should it matter if I am sitting in a computer chair as I won't fall out?
Great advice about the arm. Do these exercises achieve the same effect as the neck traction pully at the physio therapist?
