Swallowing Therapy

Swallowing is a vital exercise that is essential to enjoy eating and your health. Some 15 million Americans suffer from swallowing disorders. These disorders may be the result of a head injury, stroke, aging, diet, or possibly even medications.

The therapy, in this case, is performed by a speech-language pathologist who may include exercises to help strengthen the swallowing muscles and introduce a diet that is easily swallowed.
