Jak Korygowac Obnizone Napiecie Jezyka

BP, 6 month old, 2008

Pytanie Rodzica:

“Bylismy na kontroli u lekarza rehabilitacji i logopedy. Wg logopedy coreczka nasza rozwija sie prawidlowo, ale Pani zwrocila uwage na lekko obnizone napiecie jezyka. Coreczka nasza wystawia go. Powiedziala jak karmic lyzeczka i zwrocila uwage na to, ze nie powinnam juz karmic piersia. Co sadzisz na ten temat? Nie chcialabym Jej odstawiac. Czy moglabys nam polecic jakies cwiczenia logopedyczne? Moze ksiazki?”

Odpowiedz:

Najpierw polecalabym sparawdzic czy migdalki dziecka sa normalnych rozmiarow. Jesli sa powiekszone moga blokowac droge oddechowa i wowczas dziecko kompensuje to oddychaniem przez usta zamiast nos. Przy otwartych ustech jezyk leniwie spoczywa w dolnej czesci jamy ustnej.

Podobny odruch pojawia sie przy niedroznym nosie spowodowanym krzywa przegroda nosa, zapaleniu zatok, infekcji drog oddechowych, zapaleniu ucha swodkowego czy alergicznym katarze.

Jesli powyzsze trudnosci zostana wykluczone nalezy zorpoczac codzienna i systematyczna stymulacje jezyka i miesni jamy ustnej. Najlepsze wyniki osiaga sie kiedy dziecko jest wypoczete i wlaczone w zabawe terapeutyczna.

Napisalam kilka artykulow, ktore moga posluzyc jako przewodnik. Mimo iz sa one po angielsku mozna przyjrzec sie zawartym w nich zdjeciom i materialom terapeutycznym stosowanym podczas cwiczen.

Artykuly mozesz otworzyc przez nacisniecie tytulow .

1. Decrease Tongue Protrusion and Improve Oral-Motor Strength – PobudzenieLeniwego Jezyka i Poprawienie Sparawnosci Miesni Jamy Ustnej. (Przyczyny, podstawowe zasady terapii, metody i techniki pracy.) 
2. Straws Therapy - Terapia Slomkowa (Bardzo skuteczna i lubiana przez dzieci. Slomki roznej grubosci, dlugosci i ksztaltow moga byc uzywane do wciagania plynow jak i wydmuchiwania powietrza, np. malowania obrazkow czy wyscigu pomponow i wacianych kulek. Do cwiczen dmuchania mozna rowniez uzyc wiatraczki.)
3. Whistle and Horns as Therapy Tools – Terapia Gwizdkowa (W sklepach z asortymantem na przyjecia mozna znalezc przerozne gwizdki. Niktore z nich udzwieczniane sa na skutek wydechu a inne wdechu powietrza. Liczy sie uklad ust wokol i zamkniecie ustnika.) 
4. Oral-Motor Exercises – Cwiczenia Miesni Jamy Ustnej (Warto prowadzic je przed duzym lustrem, tak aby dziecko jednoczesnie moglo widziec siebie i terapeute. Do masarzu twarzy mozna zastosowac krem nawilzajacy i male reczniczki o roznej temperaturze.) 
5. Sensory and Feeding Products – Producty Stosowane w Terapii Odwrazliwianiai Karmienia (Bardzo polecam kubki z wycieciem na nos, Cut-out Cup. Mozna je latwo zrobic domowym sposobem. Dobrze gdyby kubki z pokrywkami nie mialy ustnika tylko niewielki otwor na wylatujacy plyn. Zastepnikiem tradycyjnego sippy cup moze byc kubek z miekka slomka, ktora mozna schowac przy zamknieciu, Hunny Bear Cup. Poza tym zacheczam do stosowania roznych rodzajow lyzeczek. Na poczatku przy karmieniu lyzeczka, umiesc jedzenie centralnie na jezyju jednioczenie uciskajac jezyk lyzeczka. Spowoduje to zmniejszenie wystawiania jezyka podczas jedzenia. Z czasem kiedy wystawianie jezyka zmniejszy sie wkladaj jedzenie z bokow, blizej koncikow ust i pomiedzy zeby. Zacheci to dziecko do czestrzego przezuwania i bocznej pracy jezyka.) 
6. Feeding Development Table - Etapy Rozwoju Pokarmowego Dziecka/Tabelka (warto do niej zajrzec i zobaczyc na jakim etapie jest Twoje dziecko.) 

Moim zadaniem odstawienie od piersi nie jest konieczne, nalezy jednak pamietac o urozmaicaniu diety, konsystencji podawanych plynow i pokarmow, roznorodnosci smakow, zapacow i temperatury, stosowaniu rozmaitych lyzeczek oraz zamknietych i otwartych kubkow.

Powyzej zamieszczone materialy sa bardzo obszerne, wiec prosze pytac jesli pojawia sie jakiekolwiek watpliwosci. Mam nadzieje, ze pomoga spojrzec na problem obnizonego napiecia jezyka z szerszej perspektywy i postawia go w bardziej optymistycznym swietle.

             

Inspirational Precepts for Kids and Teenagers

What Are Their?

Precepts are powerful principles.

Precepts are commands intended especially as a general rule of action. Precepts are suggestions, not obligatory pieces of advice which are communicated typically through teaching. When you understand and apply them in your life they can give you the strength to concur everything that comes before you.

Precepts - Synonym 

• Rules apply to more restricted or specific situations, for example the rules of the game. Anyone who has raised children has found that while they may complain about hard and fast rules, they actually feel more secure with them than with rules that are vague and always open to negotiation. Clear-cut rules don't allow for unspoken agendas to come sneaking in the back door of the mind.
• Principles are governing actions or procedures.
• Low implies imposition by a sovereign authority and the obligation of obedience on the part of all subject to that authority.
• Regulations imply prescription by authority in order to control an organization or system.
• Statutes imply a law enacted by a legislative body.
• Ordinances apply to an order governing some detail of procedure or conduct enforced by a limited authority such as a municipality.
• Canons suggest in nonreligious use a principle or rule of behavior or procedure commonly accepted as a valid guide.

Earth Day Every Day

Celebrate it on Saturday, April 22, 2017 or any other day of the year!

This holiday is a humble but joyful way to show your appreciation for the environment.

NY Public Library, April 2017

Environmental Facts:

• The average American produces more than 4 pounds of garbage per day.
• Almost half of the food in the U.S. goes to waste (about 3,000 pounds per second.)
• Every year, Americans throw away enough paper and plastic cups, forks, and spoons to circle the equator 300 times.

April 2017

Simple Changes to Waste Less:

• The energy saved by recycling one plastic bottle can power a computer for 25 minutes.
• The energy saved from recycling one glass bottle will operate a 100-watt light bulb for four hours.

BrooklynBridge Park Conservancy Environmental Education Center

Things to Do This Earth Day:

• Make a compost bin. Composting helps to reduce the amount of waste we send to the landfill and in turn, the amount of pollution in the air, land and water. Learn how you can help the environment by composting foodscraps indoors using a worm bin!
• Join a local Earth Day celebration, for example Battery Park City Park or BrooklynBridge Park Conservancy Environmental Education Center. Afterwards, take time to explore nature  in these incredible parks. 
• Head to bird watch. Study the birds’ features and observe their habits and behaviors. There are some serious birders at Prospect Park.
