Biofeedback and Dysphagia

Over the age of 60, half of all people will experience some kind of difficulty swallowing. Dysphagia patients suffer from extreme nerve or muscle damage and need rehab to learn how to swallow again. In the past, Speech Language Pathologists and their patients lacked verification of rehab progress, but now a biofeedback machine offers real time results.
