GDM would like to thank Ms Sandy Lim (SLP from USA) for her help in translation and presentation of the Korean Version of the CTAR video.
This Korean translated CTAR video and blog post are initiative of the Global Dysphagia Movement (GDM).
The Chin Tuck Againt Resistance (CTAR) exercise works on strengthening the suprahyoid muscles, necessary for opening your upper food pipe sphincter (or known as the upper esophageal sphincter) to allow food to enter the stomach.
저항성 턱 당기기 운동은 목뿔의근을 강화시켜 상부 식도 괄약근을 열어 음식이 위장에 들어갈수있게 해줍니다.
Since CTAR was introduced in 2013, Mr Yoon (The CTAR inventor) has been receiving enquiries from clinicians from around the world. We hope that this video will provide the details to facilitate the carrying out of the exercise. We plan to translate this and all our upcoming videos into different languages.
