[Dysphagia] Provale cup



Do you know the website for the Provale cup?

I've heard of this cup, Provale, and was wondering what the opinions are
about it?
Most of what I've heard is from the company (http://www.reliantmp.com), and
it's been mentioned in company e-mails and such. It sounds like a good
option, and many times I've been wanting some way for a person to just take
smaller drinks because many patients I've worked with did better when they
didn't gulp.
Does anyone have any experience with these cups or have opinions about them?
Thanks.
