Do You have Parkinson's Disease?
At Synaptic Rehab, our specialized in-home speech therapy services across New Jersey help individuals of all ages improve their communication abilities and swallowing functions. Our certified speech-language pathologists provide personalized care directly in your home, fostering a comfortable and supportive environment for rehabilitation.
We address a variety of communication issues, including speech delays, articulation problems, voice disorders, and language impairments. These can arise from developmental delays, neurological events like strokes, or other medical conditions.
Treatment begins with a detailed assessment to identify specific communication challenges. We then design personalized therapy plans that may include articulation exercises, language intervention activities, and pragmatic/social communication strategies. Our goal is to enhance effective communication across all settings.
Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, can compromise health and quality of life, and often requires specialized intervention.
Our therapy for swallowing disorders starts with a comprehensive evaluation to determine the severity and nature of the dysphagia. We employ various therapeutic techniques such as strengthening exercises for the muscles involved in swallowing, strategies to alter food textures and liquid consistency, and positioning techniques to ensure safer swallowing.
These disorders involve impairments in cognitive processes including memory, attention, and problem-solving, which affect communication abilities. They are common in individuals with brain injuries, stroke, or dementia.
Our interventions focus on enhancing cognitive-communication functions through activities that improve memory, organizational skills, and problem-solving. We also use compensatory strategies to help individuals manage their deficits in daily communication and cognitive tasks. Family members and caregivers are actively involved, receiving training to support the individual’s communication needs effectively.
