ARK’s proBarbell™ - For working on Lip Closure and Lip Strength
ARK’s proBarbell™ is a fun way to work on lip closure and lip strength. These fundamental skills are needed for proper speech and feeding development.
Based on the classic "coins taped to a tongue depressor " lip closure activity used by therapists for many years, ARK's proBarbell offers a safer, professional upgrade of this classic oral motor exercise.
Place the flat part of the blue barbell in between the lips. Instruct the user to hold it there (using the lips only, no teeth) to work on lip closure, strength, and endurance. For increased difficulty, use the green barbell which is heavier.
Working on lip closure can help to improve feeding skills, drinking skills, saliva control, speech and sound production, and more.
