Many seniors have swallowing disorders and don't know it! People who are aware of swallowing difficulty may not realize how dangerous it can be or how easily it may be corrected. It can develop gradually or suddenly as the muscles of the mouth and throat become weaker with age, illness, or stroke. Swallowing disorders can become life threatening if not treated. Treatment is usually very easy and completely noninvasive.
If you have been diagnosed with a swallowing disorder and told to thicken your drinks, or puree your food, or even if you have been told to never eat or drink again, there is new hope. We have a new treatment program which is getting excellent results. This may work for you, even if nothing else has helped.
Medicare and supplemental insurance may cover 100% of the cost of therapy. Deductibles or copays may apply, depending on your coverage. Therapy can be provided in your home or in our office in Maitland, FL.
