Concerned about your child's feeding/swallowing? A Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) will perform an assessment and suggest methods to improve your child’s feeding and swallowing. They may suggest tactics such as medical treatment, feeding therapy, increased food variety, switching the child’s position while eating, or methods to handle their behavior. An SLP can also work directly with your child to: - Strengthen mouth muscles - Improve tongue movement and chewing technique - Try new foods and drinks - Learn how to safely swallow - Teach proper meal behavior - Help with sensory issues
