I have been a Speech-Language Pathologist for about 30 years and admit that I have used non-oral motor speech activities early in my work. I also wondered where the evidence was that showed that they worked. I stopped using non-oral motor speech activities about 12 years ago and thankful to younger colleagues that presented evidence-based information to support this change.

Helpful current information with references to recent research and literature. The information was well organized and helpful to have summarized and explained in one reference. I am curious the about the thoughts on the use of non-speech oral movements as a strategy to increase awareness of the articulators which can be helpful when given placement cues etc in attempting to elicit sounds.

It just did not go into much depth- on the topic. It seemed like too many of the questions were surrounding background knowledge rather than getting into the details of arguments for and against the use of NSOMT's.

This still seems like a controversial area and I am so glad to read a solid article that supports use one way or another. Our profession is so heavy in evidence based and research based practices, this does help justify not investing time in this procedure and that time can be better spent on the many other evidence based practices we do have. It also gives me confidence in explaining this to parents of students with disorders related to speech.

It is nice to read what others are saying, and honestly I was hoping for a great article that provided concrete evidence that OME were not successful; however, it pushed me more toward breaking down the movements, similar to OT and PT principles with fine and gross motor movements.

This is a great call to perform additional research to prove what is known. The basis of treatment that we have been taught has proven research behind it. Many have seen the result. Isolate it targeting strength goals first, then address speech. Significant gaps exist regarding assumption of diagnoses and appropriate treatment. We can look to acquired muscle weakness depending on etiology for other musculature in body to start.
