This study aims to help older people (60+ years) who have trouble swallowing, known as dysphagia. Dysphagia is when it's hard to swallow food or drinks.

  • Participants must be able to answer questions and follow the exercise plan.
  • People with serious health issues like severe liver or kidney problems can't join.
