How is it done?

  • In cases of cluttering, the patient will be trained to maintain their speech limit or the speed with which they talk. They will be trained with the help of certain audios and asked to practice speaking at that speed.
  • Adding pauses in between the syllables and words will be practiced under cluttering speech therapy.
  • For stuttering, speech therapy will be practiced where the patient is taught how to focus on the syllables they seem to be troubling with. Overall sentence formation exercises will be practiced.
  • Electronic devices that help with vocal frequency may be prescribed and psychotherapy done to help identify the social or anxiety triggers for stuttering and how to avoid them.
  • The underlying psychological problem and/or developmental disorder will be treated and community support is given.

Speech therapy directed towards alteration in speech and vocal coordination loss due to cognitive changes is called cognitive speech therapy.

Voice – Vocal Tone and Issue

Voice is produced by the vibration of vocal cords. When these vocal cords do not vibrate properly, vocal tone issues like a difference in the pitch, volume, tone, depth, and other qualities of voice occur. The abnormal vocal cord vibrations may be due to the growth of extra tissue near the vocal cords, inflammation, irritation, infection or pathologies, hormonal imbalances vocal overuse, or misuse. All of these conditions lead to change in the morphology which in turn leads to decreased or increased space for the airflow.
