Exercise/Rehabilitation Approach
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Tongue Press Exercise | Lingual muscles (Tongue), reduced oropharyngeal residue and improved Penetration-Aspiration (PA) scores |
| Tongue Tip Elevation | Tongue tip strength and range of motion |
| Tongue Tip Sweep | Tongue range of motion and coordination |
| Phoneme Practice (/t, d, ch, s, sh, k, g/) | Tongue musculature (contact and release), mid-palate contact (/ch/, /s/, /sh/) and increase posterior tongue to soft palate contact (/k, g/) |
| LSVT/Speak Out! | Laryngeal and associated muscles, Parkinson’s Disease (PD) |
| Effortful Swallow | strengthen lingual and Pharyngeal muscles, educe bolus residue in the mouth and pharynx and increase pharyngeal strength |
| Mendelsohn Maneuver | Suprahyoid muscles (indirectly), prolong Upper Esophageal Sphincter (UES) opening and prolong hyolaryngeal elevation |
| Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) | Respiratory muscles (submental muscles strengthened indirectly), respiratory strength, cough strength, and swallowing function |
| Jaw Opening Exercise | Mandibular muscles and suprahyoid muscles, increases vertical hyoid motion, anterior hyoid motion, and UES opening diameter |
| Mandibular Movement Exercises (e.g., using TheraBite) | Mandibular musculature, increase mouth opening |
| Resistive Mandibular Exercises | Mandibular musculature, increase mandible strength |
| Rapid Labial Opening and Closing (using /p, b/) | Lip (Labial) musculature, labial strength and control |
| Extended Lip Squeeze followed by Lip Retraction | Lip (Labial) musculature, improve labial strength and control |
| Resistive Lip Exercises | Lip (Labial) musculature, lips strength |
| Holding Objects between Lips (e.g., straw, tongue blade) | Lip (Labial) musculature, sensory awareness and strength |
| Thermal Stimulation of the Lips (with ice) | Lip sensory awareness, especially if drooling on one side is prevalent |
