🌟 SLPs in India, let's talk about elevating patient care! 🌟 With dysphagia affecting up to 85.5% of head and neck cancer survivors and 19-65% of stroke patients in India, manual therapy (like myofascial release and laryngeal manipulation) is a must-have skill for voice and swallow rehabilitation. Here’s why:

🔹 Evidence-Based Impact: Manual therapy reduces muscle tension, improves coordination, and enhances voice and swallow function, especially for HNC and stroke patients.

🔹 Addressing India’s Needs: With a high burden of HNC (tobacco-related), strokes, and 36.6% of older adults reporting swallow issues, this approach tackles our unique challenges effectively.

🔹 Safe & Complementary: Used globally with minimal risks, it integrates seamlessly with traditional SLP methods for holistic care.

🔹 Accessible Training: Programs like SLPQuest offer hands-on courses right here in India to upskill and stay ahead.

By adopting manual therapy, SLPs can deliver transformative, patient-centered care. Let’s meet the growing demand and make a difference! 💬 Share your thoughts or connect to discuss how we can bring this to more clinics across India. hashtag#SLP hashtag#SpeechTherapy hashtag#ManualTherapy hashtag#Dysphagia hashtag#HealthcareIndia hashtag#VoiceTherapy Walt Fritz, PT
