SWALLOWING THERAPY

Being able to swallow and enjoy the food that you are eating is an essential part of life.

Sometimes due to a stroke, head injury, a neurodegenerative disease or cancer, a person loses the ability to swallow safely.

​

A Speech-Language Therapist can assess your ability to swallow safely and provide you with a tailor-made exercise programme to ensure your swallowing improves or that you are able to maintain your swallowing skills and swallow safely.

​

We are able to provide you with excellent services, from interdisciplinary assessment of swallowing using flexible endoscopy with a local ENT to developing a treatment plan based specifically on the underlying difficulties we observe during the assessment.
