The principles outlined are used in patients with different etiologies ([url] stroke, tumors, traumas).\n\n[url] T., developed by Kay Coombes, is a hands-on approach based on an understanding of neurological functions and the way we learn from experience. The approach aims to give the patient experience of physiological posture and movement using facial-oral functions in normal activities of daily living (ADL). Rather than mere exercise.
