@@SpeechSecretsAnd thank you so much for your amazing videos! I have a brain injury and I have been on a feeding tube for 7 years. I don't really have the energy to go 3 times a week anymore speech therapy so I really enjoy being able to do this at home! I can't thank you enough.
When a person whose mouth is twisted more to the left or right side of the face due to a stroke , should that person concentrate on exercising more on the affected side than the other side ?
Sorry for the late response! In general, I have people do these exercises in front of a mirror to make sure they achieve symmetry on both sides. The affected side might fatigue quicker and recruit other muscles to do the same movement so it is helpful to look at a mirror to get that visual feedback. I generally have people even with unilateral weakness do these exercises bilaterally for the range of motion, but agree at times the affected side needs more focused depending on the exercise.
Hi. My voice is breathy and low. I've been to different ENTs, but no one really knows what's going on. Tests I've had come back normal. My volume is low.Any advice?
I can’t give person specific advice, unfortunately. People can learn how to use their voice differently to change the tone or quality with therapy. I would be curious if something caused this change. Would try to find a speech therapist that specializes in voice for this. Your ENT may be able to recommend one.
My speech therapist recommended using the hands to pull the tongue since I have difficulty sticking it to left and right. It works for me and my swallowing has improved.
Hi Ruth, thanks for sharing your experience. Unfortunately, I cannot legally make any person specific recommendations. But I would definitely talk to your physician about treatment options for sialorrhea. Hoping you find what works for you and I’ll put some thought into a video on treatment options for this in the future 🙌

The follow along format is so helpful. Thank you.
That’s great to hear! I originally made these to help my patients be able to follow a home exercise program for that reason. Thanks for sharing :)
been doing your exercises for two days appears to be helping already
That’s so great to hear! Thanks for taking the time to comment.
I love the music in the background while you do the exercises with us. You are such a blessing! 💜🙏
Thanks! Some of the music is from a band I used to play with! :p
@@SpeechSecrets what!? AND you're a talented musician!?💘🫶
You inspired me to release a video about the music in the background! It’s my former band. I’ll put this video out next week!
@@SpeechSecrets Oh my gosh! I am so excited for it! Good for you, you truly are phenomenal!! 🫶

hi, for clients who can't move their toungue willingly because of weakness how we should do this exercise ???/
Use your hands to pull the tongue to the left and right. That’s what my speech therapist advised me and it works. My swallowing has improved.
Thank you mam
It's really usefull us
It's my pleasure! So glad you are finding it helpful!
cant move my tongue to left and right, is it possible to pull or push it with tongue depressor?
Use your hands to pull the tongue to the left and right. That’s what my speech therapist advised me to do. It has helped improve my swallowing.
That is a great idea to assist with the movement! Your hand or a tongue depressor could be used while trying to move it in that direction.

You may find this video on diaphragmatic breathing to be a helpful resource. ruclips.net/video/7ylDS-ACABY/видео.html

I love your videos, but do you have any pre-exercises for those of us that can't get to the tongue lateralization or or quite strong enough yet?
My speech therapist recommended using the hands to pull the tongue since I have difficulty sticking it to left and right. It works for me and my swallowing has improved.
What a great recommendation! Yes, using the hand to help the body relearn movements it may not be strong enough to do independently is a great tool.
This is a technique I often use with labial retraction to help the affected side retract for a smile.
My kid is not able to swallow ,she is holding food in her cheeks for long time. Will these tongue exercises help her
sukanya rupa did it help?
Veey good video

Are you still doing videos on speech secrets
Yes! Just starting back up again. Please let me know if you have any specific requests.
Thank you very dry much
Does it also helps in reducing stammering and stutter. Please suggest.
No, these oral motor exercises do not have evidence for improving stammering stuttering.
Can the same exercises be used for a seven year old sucking her toungh for self soothing? 💗
good maim
Thanks!
One Doubt Cant I hold as long as possible instead of doing repititions?
Depends on what you are hoping to address.... the repetitions will also address coordination and range of motion.
How can I control drooling as i lost my speech a year now, MRI for brain and EMG for nerves are all normal 😢😢 please help

Is that you singing in the background song?
No! It’s a woman named Donna Stevens that was I was in a band with!
Here's the scoop on the song! ruclips.net/video/j_3dNeTa-Z4/видео.htmlsi=DyPjPuigzvMpcBLq
Thank you!! Could you please help me with the song playing in the background? I have been trying to find it!
It was my friend Donna's music but they made me take it off due to copyright issues! :(

Does anybody watching these videos know anything about how to stop tongue chewing?
