Sorry to hear of your troubles. There is an iPad, iPhone App, called iSwallow, developed by UC Davis Center for Voice and Swallowing, that has 15 video exercises for dysphagia, including the ones you named. It is supposed to be used under the direction of a speech and swallow clinician, who has or can obtain the password required to access all thevfestures..the alarm clock, progress, and others, although, just downloading the apps, you can still access the exercises under "instructions." I do the exercises, but haven't seen my speech and swallow therapist in several months to inquire about. It is on the computer also, but to what extent, I don't know.

Exercises: Massako maneuver, swallow amplitude, chin tuck, effortfull swallow, gum chewing, head turn, jaw thrust, lollipop swallowing, Mendelssohn maneuver, superglotyic maneuver, isometric all maneuver, tongue exercises, tongue rom, vocal exercises, isometric shaker.

There is a speech, swallow alternative feedings further down the menu here, that may be helpful.

Good luck, and sure others will advise as to their experience and knowledge.
