Mealtime Management

At WA Speech our therapists are passionate about supporting adults and children to make mealtimes an enjoyable, stress-free experience for both them and their families. We love helping individuals of all ages learn how to eat a wider variety of foods safely.

Swallowing is an essential skill in everyday life. When an individual experiences difficulty with eating, drinking or tolerating certain textures, they can be at greater risk of choking, dehydration, poor nutrition or aspiration pneumonia. Our speech pathologists will work with you and your loved one to ensure safe swallowing.

Our Swallowing Services:

  • Learning to chew and swallow safely and more efficiently.
  • Concerns with swallow safety (dysphagia) due to brain injury or progressive neurological diseases.
  • Fussy eating
  • Mealtime differences secondary to autism and ADHD.
