Did you know that speech and language therapists do more than support communication? 🗣️✨

We also work with people who have feeding and swallowing difficulties, known as dysphagia. Dysphagia can affect eating, drinking, and swallowing safely, impacting people of all ages.

Speech and language therapists assess swallowing difficulties, provide therapy and strategies, and support individuals and families to help make mealtimes safer, more comfortable, and enjoyable. 💛
