PERSONALIZED SWALLOWING REHABILITATION

Restoring Safe Swallowing & Improving Quality of Life

Swallowing is a complex function that involves coordination of muscles, nerves, and reflexes. At Jiva Rehabilitation Center, we begin with a detailed assessment of swallowing ability, oral motor control, and risk factors.

Based on the evaluation, our therapists design a personalized swallowing rehabilitation plan that includes oral motor exercises, swallowing techniques, posture training, dietary modifications, and cognitive-linguistic support.

Our goal is to ensure safe swallowing, improve nutrition intake, and enhance patient confidence during meals.
