The Masako Helps Improve Swallowing

The Masako Maneuver is a swallowing exercise used in speech-language pathology to strengthen the throat muscles (specifically the pharyngeal constrictors) responsible for moving food and liquid safely down the throat. In this video, I explain what the Masako Maneuver is, why it works, and when it may be appropriate for adults with swallowing difficulties. You’ll learn: ✔️ How the Masako Maneuver helps improve pharyngeal strength and swallowing efficiency ✔️ The clinical reason this exercise is prescribed for patients with reduced tongue base retraction ✔️ Precautions and important contraindications to be aware of before performing this technique ✔️ Why this exercise is not safe for every patient and must be used with professional guidance ✔️ How it fits into a broader dysphagia treatment plan for stroke, head & neck cancer, and other neurogenic conditions If your loved one is struggling with swallowing safety, pharyngeal weakness, or difficulty propelling food backward during the swallow, this video will help you understand how the Masako Maneuver can support rehabilitation when recommended by an SLP.
