I have been diagnosed with millerfisher syndrome. Variant of Guillian Barrett after shingles shot. Been a horrible hospitalization time. These exercises are fantastic. Gonna take a while . My speech is also garbled and have been told with this variant no talking. I’m not stressing at my recovery time, just taking it a day at a time. Wish I would have seen statistics of negative reactions to shot b4 taking it. Rare but it happens. Thank you for these strengthening videos. Can’t do them well but I will get there.
Thank you for sharing your journey. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot, but your determination really shines through. I have definitely worked with people with GBS, but MFS was unfamiliar to me. Glad you’re working with a speech therapist who is giving you individualized advice for your rehab. Day by day, like you said, you’ve got this💜
I’ve been trying myofunctional therapy on my own and have always been a mouth breather. My chin has been compensating my lip strength and now I’m trying to get that lip strength! No wonder why I had such a hard time speaking as I got older. Thank you!
What is myofunctional therapy? I've just come across the term mouth breather recently and realized I do this as well. I've been struggling with neck issues and headaches for years and trying to correct it. I also just seem to have a lot of dysfunctional body movement, and have figured it has to do with core weakness.
@@bravequest8078 I’m no expert but you can look it up on RUclips and there will be lots of exercises not just for speech, but for breathing and swallowing problems as well. It isn’t entirely proven to help with sleep apnea but it did personally help me with that as well.
Wow, I just went down a whole rabbit hole learning about myofunctional therapy for snoring and sleep apnea. Thanks for commenting and sharing as a resource for others!

Need more than ever, thank you my mother had a stroke 3 months ago and had been unable to speak, swallow or move her left side. I have doing the tongue exercise from your channel with her for about a week, she still cant do them well but she tries. Today when I got home I heard she spoke briefly, so exciting. I know it's a long road to recovery but so happy there's some hope. Thanks again
Hey how is your mom doing ? My dad had a stroke 3 days ago he can’t speak can’t swallow can’t even stick his tongue out keeps drooling since he can’t swallow plz if you can give me any advice I appreciate it
@@raniasham3176 hi I am sorry to hear this. Unfortunately I tried so many things and nothing helped. She is still in the same position (tube fed). The only advice I can give is keep your dad's nutrition up. I believe It's the only thing keeping my mum alive. I blend fruit and vegetables, but when I don't have the time there is a supplement from Garden of life, raw organic meal that I used. This and a lot of patience. I truly hope your dad recovers.
I'm sorry for such a late reply. Thank you for sharing about your mother and I hope she seen progress in her rehabilitation since you last wrote this. She is lucky to have your care and support.
Hi Mr Tomad! Glad you’re finding these helpful. Thanks for sharing about your experience. Have you found any other online resources or channels helpful?
This and the previous one was awesome! There is a need for videos like this! The ST my mil had gave us noting. You did such an awesome job, I now have some nice, concrete exercises to give the caregivers to do with her! Thanks!!!
This is great, thank you. I've seen a lot of your other videos as well and have just started following along. I have bad neck pain and headaches, and have noticed bad jaw tension when I talk too much, and the headaches get worse the longer I'm around people (talking). Frustrating and isolating, so I'm happy to be working on this!
Hi Kasondra, thank you for the videos. They are very helpful, I was trying to get a good speech therapist for my mom who recently suffered a brain haemorrhage but non seemed to be good at their skills. Your videos are very educative and I have shared them with our speech therapist as well she's impressed too. Thank you so much.
@SpeechSecrets i do, i don't know how to thank you ,after doing this exercises a new facial details are founded in my left side of my face (i dont see them in a negative way) and the letters i speak became clearer
@@ismaelT-y1k Wow! Sounds like these movements helped increased your awareness of your left side. So glad to hear it helped your speech! Way to go and keep it up!
@@SpeechSecrets thank you for repliying,No. I meant how to get my speech clear eventually. How it is like exercises and reading combined or how will be the recovery process. My slp gives exercises some times reading sessions, I'm tired how long will it take to recover she says she couldn't say the time
@@betheanonymous I wish there was an easy answer for this! A professional could look at your prognostic factors to predict how your recovery might go but there is no black and white answer for this. In general, neurologic recovery is measured in weeks and months and not days. In general, the first six months after a neurologic incident you see the most recovery with ongoing, but slower gains following that. Continue working with your medical professional who knows your case.
Thank you so much for sharing! I am sorry for the very late response. Just started re-engaging with RUclips and producing regularly again after a 4 year break!
This is just superb, I've been looking for "does oral motor therapy really work?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Deyarper Especial Dominance - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for discovering how to get rid of your stuttering once and for all minus the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my buddy got excellent success with it.
what about the molars, should they be slightly touching? I can feel when I do the pucker to the left they seperate, while doing it to the right, they stay in place a little easier..
My boyfriend suffered from a brain stem stroke he is just 30 years old. There is parasys of the right side. Its been 3 months since the stroke and his trachostomy tube got removed 1 month ago....He is not being able to speak yet. He can form sentences but when he talks the speech is not clear and he has a hard time speaking some letters such as, W, P, Z etc. Do you think these exercises can help him?
I am so sorry to hear about your boyfriend. Brainstem strokes can be very serious. I hope he has progressed in his recovery since you first wrote this. I cannot comment on his case specifically, but I just added a few videos that are follow along for speech and language you may want to check out.
My response is very late and I am hoping you found some support with this question. I cannot comment on your case specifically but in general changes in sensation are common with neurologic injuries, more often though decreased sensation as opposed to heightened sensation. You may want to look into desensitization techniques for heightened sensitivity.
I hope you found support with your stammering! I have some experience with adult stammering but is not my area of expertise. Please feel free to share any youtube resources you find!

These exercises are great for individuals with stroke. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by the tongue shrink. Are you referring to the tongue getting smaller after a neurologic incident?

Cannot move pucker to one side?
It may help to think less of moving the pucker and more of activating the cheek which drives the movement.
We should repet it for 10 time???? Sister?
Repetition is key!
Great
usful for cp child
Pucker up 😮
I was like why does it have to be a girl 😒 but I was wrong this was great to watch
my neighbor just saw me might moved out later on
Hi
Hi

👍
😂😅
is this applicable of a stroke person and the tongue shrink?
These exercises are great for individuals with stroke. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by the tongue shrink. Are you referring to the tongue getting smaller after a neurologic incident?
Thank you
You are very welcome!
