Understanding dysphagia
Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, can arise from various conditions such as stroke, degenerative diseases like Parkinson's, head and neck cancer, traumatic brain injuries, or prolonged hospital stays. At Find Your Voice, we're equipped to address these challenges with targeted therapy.
Aspiration
We provide specialized care for individuals experiencing swallowing difficulties. Our therapy focuses on restoring function by using research based exercises and ensuring safety of current swallow with safe strategies and consistencies.
MBSS and FEES
An MBSS or Modified Barium Swallow Study is an Xray test that analyzes the swallow. It is done in a hospital and can provide details about strengths and weaknesses thereby providing valuable information to help guide a safe diet and treatment.
A FEES (Fiberoptic Endoscopic Examination of Swallow) can be done wherever you are instead of the hospital. It looks at your swallow by using a camera attached to a flexible endoscope which goes up your nose and sees the swallow from above. While not comfortable, it is not painful and most people tolerate it quite well.
