Sucking Tube

The Sucking Tube features a specialized progressive resistance program designed for targeted oral motor “gyming”.It forces the user’s lips, cheeks, and tongue to work against controlled physical resistance to draw liquid upward, systematically building oral muscle tone.

• Progressive Resistance Program: Designed to take users through various difficulty stages of sucking to systematically challenge and strengthen oral muscles.
• Oral Motor “Gyming”: The internal resistance forces the lips, tongue, and cheeks to exert more physical effort than a standard straw, functioning like weight training for the mouth.
• Difficulty Levels: Allows therapists and caregivers to select and scale the appropriate resistance based on the user’s current oral motor abilities and milestones.

• Systematic Muscle Strengthening: Targets and tones the oral musculature necessary for controlled airflow and precise speech articulation.
• Improved Swallowing Function: Enhances the coordination required for safe bolus management in dysphagia therapy.
• Ergonomic Latch: The shape ensures an optimal lip seal, preventing fluid leakage and teaching correct mouth positioning.
• Oral Sensory Integration: Acts as a therapeutic tool for individuals with oral sensory needs by helping them learn vegetative mouth functions.

• Material: Made from 100% medical-grade, transparent, and crack-proof food-grade polymers.
• Age Grading: Intended for individuals aged 3 years and older (children, stroke patients, and adults).
• Sterilization: Can be boiled at 70°C (158°F) for 10 minutes to maintain hygiene.
• Cleaning Kit: Comes with a specialized tube cleaner to completely clear out liquid residue after every session.
• Safety Warning: This is an active therapy tool, not a toy; continuous adult supervision is required due to choking hazards.
