TheraSIP Swallowing Trainer

TheraSIP Swallowing Trainer works as a bedside tool to measure the number of practiced swallows during treatment and the strength of the sucking function. The carefully engineered, micro-sized resistance straws have varying interior diameters to be used in training that strengthens the swallow while acting as an incentive device. Clients can easily track the number of practice swallows and size of liquid managed. Kit includes complete instructions for use, graduated cylinder, stopper, series of straws, graduated cup and sliding guide for fluid levels.
TheraSTRAWS are straws of decreasing interior diameters that restrict bolus size and maximize safe intake of thin liquids. Includes four straws—each in a different size to fit inside each other, keeping the exterior size of the straws larger. They can be shaped (bent) by placing in a microwave; shortened as needed; and cleansed after each use.
