Vital-Stim

 

Vital-StimTM is the newest technology used in treating patients suffering from dysphagia (swallowing problems).  Vital-StimTM is a device that provides electrical stimulation to the muscles of the throat to improve movement and control of the muscles used in swallowing.  Our Speech-Language Pathologists are specially trained and certified to use this advanced technology.
