Swallowing Therapy
When chewing and swallowing becomes difficult it is called Dysphagia. This condition can be treated with exercises and modifications to food textures and swallowing postures. It is our goal to facilitate safe and enjoyable mealtimes for every patient.
Speech & Language Therapy
Speech and language can be impaired for many reasons, including neurological illness, surgery, degenerative diseases or cancer treatments. Conditions like Aphasia and Dysarthria often arise as a result. Therapy will consist of practice, skilled strategies & homework.
Cognitive Therapy
Cognition is a complex network of thinking behaviors that can often be improved with repetitive practice. Sometimes, cognition can be impacted following extended hospital stays, neurological damage, surgery, even following COVID.
