Description
FOLLOW THE SWALLOW is a motion flip book.
Half of the book shows the normal swallow with individual illustrations accompanied by detailed text. Flipping the pages gives the illusion of motion allowing the viewer to better understand the anatomy and physiology of the swallow. The other half of the book covers dysphagia, again with the ability to see the process in motion.
Treatment philosophy these days includes helping patients identify functional goals, understand why they can or can not eat, why the prescribed exercises are important; and to have them assist in planning and implementing their therapy. FOLLOW THE SWALLOW will help you do this!

Testimonial:
This book is a must for the clinician who deals with dysphagic patients and their families. It provides an excellent visual explanation of both the anatomy and physiology of the swallowing process, both normal and abnormal. With this knowledge comes a more in-depth comprehension of any therapeutic intervention and/or possible diet modification.
