Stuttering Management
Stuttering is a speech disorder where the individual’s natural flow of speech is disrupted by frequent repetitions or prolongations of certain sounds, syllables and words. Sometimes, this makes it impossible to even start a word.
Since physicians are the first point of contact by children who experience this speech disorder, it is necessary that they are well informed of its nature and available treatment before referring them to speech language pathologists.
Since stuttering is an involuntary disorder it seems to stay that way throughout life. Currently, this speech disorder has no permanent cure yet although there are some very effective treatments. Children who have this impediment usually experience spontaneous recovery as they grow older. Studies show that 80% of kids recovered in a normal progression. For the unfortunate amongst us that maintain stuttering into adult life, other stuttering management options need to be considered.
Therapeutic intervention for stuttering management are best geared towards effective and efficient symptom reduction and alleviating the response to situations known to cause stuttering. The best intervention options available to children and adults are therefore limited to behavioural therapies. Many current therapies can involve long and countless hours of speech retraining. This is like teaching the person how to talk again. The procedure attempts to voluntarily control the disorder. The end result of this procedure is unnatural speech pattern is difficult to maintain and is at a very high risk of relapse.
On the other hand, the advancement in science may well be helpful in the effective management of stuttering. Miniaturized digital technology now helps people with this speech disorder to take advantage of auditory effects that stop stuttering. Speaking in unison or Choral speech has been used before and had made stutterers immediately fluent. It did not even compromise naturalness or fluidity in speech. Ear devices can somehow replicate choral speech effects. This is done by the alteration of auditory feedback. The therapeutic plans, procedures and guidelines of these devices can be immediately and efficiently implemented. In addition to that, the uses of ear devices have shown high levels of affectivity in relation to the reduction on the frequency of stuttering. Also, naturalness in speech can be maintained easily.
As with all techniques and procedures, you should always consult with your health professional.
