Dysphagia Swallowing Exercise - Chin Tuck Against Resistance with Ball by CTAR Inventor (English)

The Chin Tuck Againt Resistance (CTAR) exercise works on strengthening the suprahyoid muscles, necessary for opening your upper food pipe sphincter (or known as the upper esophageal sphincter) to allow food to enter the stomach. Since CTAR was introduced in 2013, Mr Yoon (The CTAR inventor) has been receiving enquiries from clinicians from around the world. We hope that this video will provide the details to facilitate the carrying out of the exercise. We plan to translate this and all our upcoming videos into different languages.
