Speech rehabilitation

Speech therapy endeavors to enhance or regain an individual's capacity for communication and comprehension of both spoken and written language. In cases where patients face challenges with chewing and swallowing, speech therapy focuses on retraining muscles and implementing strategies to mitigate risks such as choking, coughing, and food retention in the oral or throat areas.


Our skilled speech therapists specialize in addressing a wide range of speech, language, and voice disorders, spanning from mild to severe cases. Furthermore, we employ state-of-the-art treatments to effectively manage dysphagia, a condition characterized by difficulty swallowing.

 

CU Medicine offers speech therapy services targeting a range of conditions, including:


  • Maximizing the benefits of cochlear implants through specialized training.

  • Cognitive disorders affecting processing, memory, and reasoning.

  • Dysphagia, characterized by difficulty swallowing.

  • Functional breathing disorders, such as paradoxical vocal fold motion.

  • Rehabilitation following laryngectomy, the surgical removal of the voice box.

  • Post-stroke language and speech-related rehabilitation.

  • Voice disorders, including chronic hoarseness.
