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.

I have been debating whether or not I should use oral motor exercise with my lateral lisp students, this helped me decide that is was probably not a good idea. Also supported that progress can be limited with the tough cases and you just do what you can.

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.

For years oral motor exercises and non speech movements have been used. I will no longer be recommending or using it in treatment due to lack of evidence to support it.
by
Member
on
December 31, 2023
I learned that I need to do a bit more research in this area and be cautious about incorporating non-oral motor movements in therapy. I would have liked for the author to present some alternative ways to address muscle weakness that are effective, but i guess using the oral-motor movements that are shown to help with speech sound disorders and dysphagia would be most beneficial.

The course was very good because it presented reference to several studies across recent years that investigated the efficacy of the use of NSOM/NSOME and clearly stated conclusions of the particular studies. The summary of the presenter'S investigation into such efficacy was clearly stated and left my mind less confused about the use of NSOMT.

When I was a medical SLP extern student, I had to do oral motor stimulation exercises for patients who recently had strokes. The idea was to at least attempt to stimulate the muscles before blowing air through a straw or trying to suck air through to help decrease feeding/swallowing incidents.

I feel like the questions on the exam did not assess the main points related to the learning objectives. Instead, there were questions on very specific details from one or two sentences of the whole article. Exams should assess whether or not the reader understood the learning objectives, not the reader's ability to memorize percentages and quotes from the article.
