I'm really happy to have found your channel! I would love to see it flourish, and I'm excited to check out the rest of the content. I myself have a long history of poor posture, causing many pathologies which seem all interconnected. It feels like I just "learned" to use my body wrong--mind-muscle disharmony--which I attribute to being so neurodivergent. I suffer dysphasia, as well as trouble projecting when I speak. I've been trying to unravel and fix my problems for 20 years. I'm way overdue for finding a specialist to help...
Hi Mistro. Thanks for sharing your experience. Seems like you have very good body awareness and I applaud you for looking for resources to heal and learn from. Hope you find the information here helpful for your body journey. 🙌
Very informative. I had a stroke 5 years ago and I have found your videos to be very helpful . I appreciate your time in delivering these videos as they have helped me tremendously. I keep looking for more and more everyday.
John, thanks so much for the feedback. I’m glad you’re finding the information and presentation style helpful. Wishing you much success in your dysphagia rehabilitation and I hope you are able to access the resources you need. Many blessings to you.
Thanks for making this and other videos with swallowing exercises. I had thyroid cancer that had spread to lymph nodes in my neck and 2 of my parathyroid glands. I had a total thyroidectomy and left neck dissection 3 years ago. After my surgery, I started getting choked while eating or drinking. The choking doesn't happen every time I eat or drink; it happens randomly, so there's no way to really be evaluated. I will practice these exercises and others from your videos so hopefully I won't get choked as often. Thanks again!
Another great video, thank you! My speech therapist recently worked with me and added Supraglottic Swallow to my regular exercises. Your video helps with with my cognitive decline to remember proper technique at home. Blessings to you.
That's great to hear, Allen! Glad you are able to use the videos as an additional resource to complement your current speech therapy services. I wonder if other viewers are using this video similarly. Many blessings to you as well on your rehabilitation journey.
Great video. I'm an inhome care provider for a 73yo woman who had a cervical neck fusion who has had some difficulty swallowing. Your tips have helped her a lot.
Hi Kasondra!!! Update on my mom!. Let me just say Lord I thank you. My mom is doing the first two exercises combined. So we look at the “weak elbow” which is her right side. She’s had trouble swallowing and a lot of excessive drooling. She usually reach for her towel to wipe it away. Now we are developing a new habit for her drooling using this exercise. We have been doing this and let me just say she is developing a stronger swallow and is getting more confident in her ability to do so. This is safe and it works and I just thank you so much for sharing and educating caregivers like myself. Please keep going. We appreciate you so much. It’s truly life changing. 🤍✨🫶🥰
🥹 Crystal, wow! This makes me so happy and makes it worth it. What a gift you are to your mother. So glad you are finding this information helpful. Thanks for sharing yours and your mother’s journey. I am working on a dysphagia exercise challenge video for next week !
i had head and neck cancer 20 years ago and have been having more swallowing problems the last 5 years I had to get my teeth removed 3 years ago because of the radiation Now i have reflux which makes things a lot worse I lost a lot of weight but your videos are helping a lot getting my tongue and throat exercise and moving again I like the way you do a follow along style I have a swallow study tomorrow which the last one I did I failed miserably hopefully I will do better this time Thanks again Paul
Paul, thanks for sharing your story here. I hope others are able to relate to your experience. I also really appreciate the feedback regarding the follow along style being helpful. I’ll keep that in mind for future videos. Good luck on your swallowing study! Rooting for your safe swallow!
Hi .. great info thank you for sharing. .. just clueless about ideally after the stroke how many days one should do this excercises and when can one starts to actually practice with the real food ( basically the duration and order of food consistency. )) i am scared of coughing
Hi Paru! There is no one size fits all answer for this. I would recommend speaking with your medical provider regarding your specific condition and timeline with eating if you are worried about your swallowing. Not sure if you already saw this video which has good research for post stroke swallowing exercise: ruclips.net/video/OktGeei87Oo/видео.html Blessings to you in your recovery
I have trouble swallowing liquids. Ive had barium xray tests etc. But find I kind of miss time my swallowing. I cant ever just swallow i have to hold it in my mouth and talk myself into swallowing if that makes sense. My SP suggested iceblocks which I eat around 3 a day to try get enough fluids. Any suggestions?
I'm so sorry to hear about these difficulties. I can't make any person specific comments or recommendations legally. So I am glad to hear that you've worked with a speech therapist. You may want to work with a speech therapist who specializes in swallowing if you have not already- voice and swallowing clinics are a good place to look.
