Swallowing

‘Dysphagia’ is the medical term for a disorder of swallowing. There are many reasons why someone might have dysphagia and it is a problem that can affect people of any age. I have gained a high level of experience of working with people with dysphagia, aged 0 – 100+.

If you think you might have dysphagia, or have been diagnosed, I might be able to help you. Bear in mind that often dysphagia needs to be dealt with in a medical setting (i.e. a hospital), depending on the individual issue. However, sometimes it will be possible for me to provide an initial assessment or to provide therapy in this setting. I may also be able to arrange joint-working with a private medical consultant if further assessment is required. Please do contact me here to discuss whether I can help you.
