What Voice Therapy Is?

Voice Therapy includes rehabilitation of the speaking and performing voice.

Vocal athletes commonly need voice therapy to help them regain their optimal, high-performing voices.

Center for Vocal Health has a unique approach to voice rehabilitation, combining medical evaluation and care planning with a customized therapy plan that fits your needs and ensures your best vocal outcome.

Who Is Voice Therapy For?

Voice therapy is rehabilitation tailored for individuals experiencing voice or upper airway symptoms such as persistent hoarseness, voice loss, vocal fatigue, loss of range, changes in voice quality, aging voice, laryngeal tension, dyspnea, or chronic coughing and throat clearing. 

Voice therapy services offer valuable benefits not only to individuals experiencing vocal issues but also to those seeking to enhance or preserve their voice quality. It's important to proactively establish a voice care team before encountering any voice-related challenges. This allows us to establish a baseline, provide personalized preventative vocal care, and ensure our support remains readily available to you throughout your journey.

Voice therapy is like physical therapy for the voice. Through a blend of lifestyle guidance, vocal techniques, and tailored exercises, Tressa rehabilitates and helps prevent vocal issues.

She will assess your specific challenges and goals and develop a tailored treatment plan.

Voice evaluation

A comprehensive voice evaluation assesses your current vocal capabilities. This helps us see where you are at the beginning of therapy, to clearly define and communicate goals of treatment.
