We're not going to sugarcoat it... certification costs money. But what if you could cut that cost in half AND have a built-in accountability partner?

That's exactly what this ASHA weekend deal does.

Here's how it works:
🔹 You register for $300
🔹 You receive a unique coupon code by email
🔹 Share it with your friend and they register for free
🔹 If you split the cost 50/50 = $150 each instead of $300
🔹 You both get access to the on-demand training for one year and three-year access to the certified users page

And no, you don't have to coordinate schedules. It's completely self-paced. You can train on your own time, in your own way.

What makes Ampcare ESP different from other NMES protocols?
⚡ 30-minute sessions (vs 60+ minutes)
⚡ Pie-shaped electrodes that prevent painful "hot spots"

This is Eloise! She was diagnosed with a laryngeal cleft and found to be aspirating liquids.

Even after a surgical repair that addressed her laryngeal cleft, Eloise still aspirated on nectar-thick liquids. The structural issue was resolved, but the functional problem remained.

Turns out, Eloise's swallow timing and coordination were impaired. See, Eloise also had benign transient dystonia... meaning this wasn't just a structural issue.

🏆This is where ESP shines! While other approaches focus on the "phases" of swallowing, ESP targets the actual mechanics. Specifically, how quickly and completely the airway closes during a swallow.

Think of it like this👇
Having a perfectly shaped larynx doesn't help if it doesn't close fast enough to protect the airway. That's like having a perfectly built door that closes too slowly to keep the rain out.

ESP targets the speed and completeness of laryngeal vestibule closure: the exact thing Eloise was missing.

Five months later, her swallowing mechanics were deemed "normal." This is why we're so passionate about ESP!

It doesn't just compensate for dysphagia with thickeners or tricks. It addresses the underlying mechanics that make swallowing safe.

💬DM us if you have a patient who's still struggling despite "fixing" the structural issues.

Because sometimes the most important part of swallowing isn't what you can see, it's what happens in those critical milliseconds when the airway needs to close.

Can Ampcare's Effective Swallowing Protocol (ESP) treat oral pocketing?

The answer is...🥁🥁🥁

TRUE!

We get the frustration that SLPs feel... That moment when you're working with a stroke patient who keeps pocketing food in their cheek, and traditional exercises just aren't cutting it.

You try everything in your toolbox:
👉tongue sweeps
👉awareness training
👉compensatory strategies.

But the food keeps disappearing into that buccal pocket, and you start wondering if you're missing something.

Here's what one recent UK Ampcare audit data shows: When ESP electrodes are specifically placed over the buccinator muscle (targeting oral pocketing), patients can make significant progress.

One case study showed a patient who previously experienced cheek biting and oral pocketing was able to consume an IDDSI 7 diet post-intervention.

The key is targeting the right muscles for the specific impairment:
👉Buccinator for pocketing
👉Masseter for chewing
👉Orbicularis Oris for lip seal

And pairing with the right exercises during stimulation:
👉Task-specific activities that match the muscle's function
👉Exercises performed during the "on" cycle to pair motor response with stimulation
👉Consistent practice to build neuroplasticity

No, it's not a magic wand. But when you've tried everything else and that food is still hiding in your patient's cheek, having another evidence-based tool can feel pretty magical.

ESP facial placement gives you options when traditional approaches fall short.

What exactly is neuroplasticity?🤔

According to Kleim & Jones (2008), in their famous article, Principles of Experience-Dependent Neural Plasticity: Implications for Rehabilitation After Brain Damage, it is defined as, "the mechanism by which the brain encodes experience and learns new behaviors. It is also the mechanism by which the damaged brain relearns lost behavior in response to rehabilitation."

🧠They continue to state that, "the existing data strongly suggest that neurons, among other brain cells, possess the remarkable ability to alter their structure and function in response to a variety of internal and external pressures, including behavioral training.

🧠By understanding the basic principles of neural plasticity that govern learning in both the intact and damaged brain, identification of the critical behavioral and neurobiological signals that drive recovery can begin."

☝️That's what SLP, Tiffany Spurlin, told us after using Ampcare ESP with a 14-month-old who was facing G-tube placement.

Let's bust a myth right now: ESP isn't just for adults.

Ampcare absolutely can be used with infants and toddlers when applied by skilled clinicians who understand how to modify the protocol appropriately.

What SLPs need to know about pediatric ESP:
🔹 You might start with sensory-level stimulation for the youngest patients
🔹 Use age-appropriate distraction (toys, videos, games)
🔹 Consider shorter durations based on tolerance
🔹 Parent education is crucial for carryover

Our certified SLPs are using ESP with patients from 4 months to 91 years old.

The protocol is adaptable, the parameters are customizable, and the outcomes are changing lives across the entire lifespan.

This is what we hear from patients more often than you'd think.

The clinical measures tell one story:
📋PAS scores
📋FOIS levels
📋SWOL-QOL

But behind every number is a human being who's been quietly excluded from one of life's most basic social experiences.

🎂 Birthday parties where they can't have cake
🍽️ Family dinners where they sit with empty plates
☕ Coffee dates that become impossible
🦃 Holiday meals spent watching from the sidelines

Example: Tom's family members understood this. For 10 years, they ate in shifts during vacations so he wouldn't have to watch.

Example: Michelle went through boxes of tissues daily, but what broke her heart wasn't the secretions - it was missing meals with her family.

💙This is why we do what we do.

Yes, we're treating aspiration risk and improving FOIS scores. But in reality, we're giving people their seat back at the table.

We're restoring the simple joy of sharing a meal with people you love.

Every success story we share isn't just about clinical improvement; it's about families who can finally eat together again.

In a 2013 study by Watts, two traditional dysphagia exercises went head-to-head.
1️⃣Head-lift (the one we learned in grad school)
2️⃣Chin-to-chest (CtC) against resistance with a posture device

When researchers hooked up 20 healthy adults to sEMG, they measured activation over the suprahyoids during a 10-second hold and found...
👉CtC against resistance fired the hyolaryngeal muscles TWICE as much
👉The difference was statistically significant (p
