Many parents notice that their child struggles with chewing, swallowing, drinking, drooling, or controlling food in the mouth. These challenges can also be associated with speech and feeding difficulties.
Oral-motor therapy is one approach used to support these functions. Another area gaining interest is neuromuscular training, which focuses on stimulating and training the muscles involved in oral and swallowing functions.
Could neuromuscular training become another useful tool alongside conventional therapy?
We believe this is a conversation worth exploring — with parents, therapists and rehabilitation professionals.
