  • What if you have difficulty swallowing your food or any liquids? I got you. In this video we will be doing exercises to improve your ability to swallow your food and liquids, opening and closing youe mouth And even ability to articulate words.
    Please see your doctor to find out what is causing the difficulty of swallowing. If you have done that then you can do the exercises that we are going to do today to improve your swallowing, decrease drooling, and ability to open and close your mouth.
    If you have this problem then you are at risk of aspirating which will again send you back to the hospital. So it is necessary to address your swallowing problems.
    Opening the mouth - Open your mouth as wide as possible and holding it for 10 seconds do this three times.
    Pucker your lips - Protrude your lips like you are about to kiss and hold it for 10 seconds and repeat this three times.
    Cheek sucking- Protrude your lips just like puckering it and suck your cheeks in words and hold it for 10 seconds three times.
    Smacking - Bring your lips in words. And hold it for 10 seconds three times.
    Sticking your tongue out - Stick your tongue out as far as you can 10 times.
    Tongue up- Stick your tongue out and bring it up to watch your nose 10 times
    Tongue down - Stick your tongue out and bring it down to your chin 10 times
    Tongue side to side- Stick your tongue out and bring it side to side 10 times.
    Tongue to the roof of your mouth. - Bring your tongue to the roof of your mouth and then try to swallow as hard as you can and we will repeat this 5 times.

    I have been your student for almost two months now. I am recovering from a stroke nicely with your lessons. I have been following you from the hospital room. It is almost two months now. You have been my only physical and occupational therapist. I have been a professor for about 20 years. I am sure that you have done more for me in just about months with your knowledge, your passion, your way to motivate, than I am yet to do for my students. I thank you. Just remember "consistency is the key. Never give up.

    80 years old and I have a problem drooling. I started using your exercises about a month ago. I can already see improvement. Every now and then I have saliva pooling in my mouth and when I open my mouth the saliva drips out. That problem has also decreased since starting the exercises. Thanks for your work.

    Thanks with the excise I'm doing much better with my speech and swallowing as I had a stroke ,my whole right side was numb unable to speak, choking when I swallow food and liquids, I'm doing most of the excises you demonstrate from stiff hand and leg, I'm doing very good after following your excises, I'll like to say keep up the good work you're doing as the therapy I attended was not Enough so I was stranded and frustrated asking myself how am I going to do with the minimal excises I received from the different therapist, you're a God sent ❤😊

    Ive been following you on my TV
    I was diagnosis with MS in 1970. You have helped me greatly with your exercise programs. My swallowing has greatly improved. My issue is mostly with liquids. My walking is strong but balance is not good but is getting better since Ive been doing your exercises. You by far are the best PT I've ever had. God Bless you and thank you for your help.😊

    (when you eat, try to spawn the spit, and swallow as soon as the spit comes out of your gums)
    This is what actually worked for me^. And I tried to eat and swallow faster
    I love Matt Stonie. (Christ Loves him too, he was probably starving during the last supper. I wonder if he ate fast or slow.)

    Recovering from a stroke. Facial drooping. Drooling slurring wordsI Hand choking are things i am dealing with and working on. For the first time ever i am realizing how short my tongue is. I can barely get it above my top lip or below my bottom lip. So i have a whole different respect or admiration for Gene Simmons. I always thought his tongue antics were kinda gross and weird, so i have never gone through trying to touch my nose or chin with my tongue. Then one day my Speech Therapist says to stick out my tongue, raise it abd try to touch my nose. Of course i couldn't even come close and 2vmonths later, still can't do much more than cover my top lip. I never dreamed that one day i woukd be watching tongue exercise videos on UA-cam, never knew that my tongue would one day need exercises, didn't even know it was a thing. This guy explains things and his instructions are easy to follow. I considered tying a string around my tongue so i could pull it up higher, but figured that, with my luck lately, i would end up swallowing the string and choking or damaging my tongue. So i will plod along with exercises and do my best. Thank you for posting these exercises. 😛😝🤪
