Invented by Debra C. Lowsky, MS, CCC-SLP, ARK's Textured Grabber® is a textured version of the popular Grabber® oral motor chew tool.The innovative P shape design has an easy-to-hold loop, with a long extension for reaching the back molars. It also features 3 different surfaces to chew on: one smooth, one with circular bumps, and one with rectangular bumps. These textures simulate the feel of actual food for realistic non-food chewing practice. They also add extra tactile sensation to the lips, cheeks, gums, and tongue to help desensitize the mouth, decrease oral defensiveness/aversions, and transition individuals with sensory issues from puréed to textured foods. The Grabber® can also be used:As an oral fidget for sensory seekers craving stimulation and proprioceptive inputAs a safe alternative to chewing on hands, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc.As an alternative to tooth-grinding and/or thumb-sucking To help decrease oral defensiveness and food aversionsTo practice biting/chewing without the risk of chokingTo work on jaw strength and stability and oral motor skillsTo build oral strength, mobility, and controlTo satisfy the urge to chew for individuals who are fed through a g-tubeARK Textured Grabber® comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels:Standard (red or magenta) - These are the softest ones with the most “squishiness” and “give” to them. Recommended for mild chewers and/or beginners practicing biting/chewing skills Medium Firm / XT (lime green or teal) - XT stands for "Xtra Tough," recommended for moderate chewing. These are firmer, but still chewy. Very Firm / XXT (royal blue or forest green) - XXT stands for "Xtra Xtra Tough," recommended for more avid chewing. These are the most firm and provide the most resistance to the jaw. No chew tool is indestructible, but these are very tough.ARK manufactures the Grabber® in the USA! It's medical grade, FDA compliant, and contains NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex. Measures approximately 13cm lengthwise, just under 5cm across the loop, and 1,3cm thick.Caution: This product is not a toy. Recommended for children 3 years and up. Although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Wear/tear may be expected given the nature of the intended use. How long they last is typically equal to the amount and intensity of the chewing, as well as other variables (such as jaw strength, stress/anxiety levels, if other sensory strategies are in place, etc.). While for some people a chew tool will last forever, for others with heavy/aggressive oral needs, they may go through it very quickly. Please supervise at all times, regularly inspect the chew, and replace if necessary if the item shows signs of wear and tear.

ARK’s Jaw Grading Bite Blocks are a great complement to any oral motor tool box. Specially designed to work on jaw grading and stability, each arm has a different thickness to practice various jaw heights:The orange arms are 3mm and 6mm thickThe magenta arms are .7mm and 1cm thick The teal arms are 1,3cm and 1,5cm thick What is jaw grading and stability? Jaw grading is the ability to have controlled movements of the jaw to various jaw heights needed for speech and feeding skills. For example, note the difference in your jaw when saying “eee” vs “ahhh”. Or, imagine biting into a cracker vs a sandwich/burger. Your jaw has to open to different heights to accommodate those different sounds and foods. Jaw stability is the strength, coordination, and endurance needed to do so without the jaw sliding forward and/or sideways. Each Bite Block set comes with instructions including four exercises to help work on these skills. These Bite Blocks are firm for good resistance during jaw exercises, but not 100% rigid to be gentle on the teeth (for softer options to work on chewing skills, see the Grabber and/or Y-Chew). Each arm also has gentle sensory bumps to grip the teeth.medical grade, FDA & CE compliantNo BPA, PVC, lead, phthalates, or latexEach block measures 18,4cm long in total, with each "arm" measuring about 7,4cm long and 1,3cm wide. Dishwasher-safeSold in a set (1 orange, 1 magenta, and 1 teal)Caution: this therapeutic tool should be used under adult supervision at all times.

TRAIN HARDER, RUN FASTER, BREATHE LIKE A CHAMPION Nose breathing during exercise boosts power, strength and endurance. It protects you from upper airway infection — the #1 cause of sickness in athletes. And it supports quicker recovery and ease of movement, reducing your risk of injury. But when training gets tough, nose breathing can feel impossible. As exercise intensifies, you instinctively open your mouth to get more air into your lungs. And that’s the defining moment… When you could be pushing yourself to the max, but instead, you hit a wall.KEY FEATURES: Better airflow – gentle stenting action opens each nostril to reduce nasal resistance during sports activityBetter than Breathe Right strips – nostril openers are more effective than nasal strips (Matteo et al., 2019)Lightweight for comfort, no skin irritation or nosebleedsSoft outer surface holds Nasal Dilator securely inside your nosePatent pendingPack contains 4 dilators (2 x medium and 2 x large)Each nasal dilator can be used for between 3 and 6 months, for any length of time during the day. Wash between uses with warm soapy water to maintain nasal hygiene.

Developed in partnership with Shari Martin, OTR/L, ARK's Bite Tube Tip for the Z-Vibe® is specially designed for targeted, functional biting and chewing practice.  It's much like the Bite-n-Chew Tip XL, only with a hollow center for food. Simply fill the tube with soft foods, such as applesauce, yogurt, stage 1 baby foods, etc. Use the Bite Tube Tip to establish the concept of needing to bite and chew to eat food. It's also an excellent way to incorporate real food as you practice the motor planning of eating skills. The Bite Tube Tip comes in two different versions: smooth (lavender) or textured (blue). For individuals with oral defensiveness, start with the smooth tip and gradually progress to the textured one. For individuals who need more proprioceptive input to the mouth, the textured one provides both tactile input and added resistance. For individuals with a weak bite, start with a hollow Bite Tube Tip and progress to a solid Bite-n-Chew Tip (Bite-n-Chew Tip sold separately). Use any of these tips to improve chewing motion and jaw strength. If desired, you can trim the Bite Tube Tip to a shorter length with a pair of scissors. A wonderful addition to any feeding / oral motor therapy toolbox!Made in the USA, medical grade, FDA compliantNo BPA, PVC, lead, phthalates, or latexMeasures approximately 7,6cm long and just under 1,2cm in diameterThis listing is for the lavender Hard Bite Tube Tip (lavender) - sold individuallyDishwasher-safe To be used with any Z-Vibe® or Z-Grabber® (sold separately)Caution: this therapeutic tool should be used under adult supervision at all times.

Natural rubber tube from Stomax (Stöhrmann)Training with the chewing tube is also a classic therapy tool for myofunctional therapy. Chewing on the tube trains chewing and biting functions and supports jaw development.Logicana recommends: Place the ends of your chewing tube together, press firmly about 2cm behind the ends and let your patients chew on it- the ends of the chewing tube may already be sucking on the edges of the tongue-ideal for training the lateralization of the tongue.  Price per 1m Dimension: 5,0 x 2,5mm
