Oral Placement Therapy (OPT) is a hierarchical based approach used to improve speech clarity and feeding skills in individuals of all ages and across diagnoses. Combined with a tactile-sensory-motor approach, OPT provides a comprehensive solution to a variety of speech and feeding issues. It involves the use of therapy tools to train and transition muscle movements that are used for feeding & speech production by targeting the oral structure placement.
LEVEL TRAINING PROGRAM
TalkTools exclusive LEVEL TRAINING PROGRAM is designed to provide professional therapists a clear path to qualify as TalkTools OPT (Oral Placement Therapy) Therapists.
THREE-PART TREATMENT PLAN for ORAL PLACEMENT THERAPY
This introductory course to OPT (Oral Placement Therapy)™ is the foundation for TalkTools training and is integrated throughout many of our courses. OPT is a type of oral-motor therapy that targets specific movements needed for speech and feeding. This therapy has been found to be particularly effective for clients who are not responding to traditional therapy and may need additional input.
The “3 parts” of OPT are:
speech
feeding
sensory — this “part” is what sets our therapy approach from traditional approaches.
