Voice

Voice disorders can impact anyone—from professionals who rely on their voice daily, to individuals struggling with chronic hoarseness or vocal strain. Whether caused by overuse, injury, illness, or aging, these conditions can make it difficult to communicate effectively and confidently.

At Speak and Swallow we are experienced in treating a wide range of voice disorders, helping you regain clarity, comfort, and strength in your voice. Through personalised assessment and evidence-based therapies, we work with you to address conditions such as vocal nodules, vocal cord paralysis, voice fatigue, muscle tension, or difficulties with neurological disease including Parkinson’s Disease, Functional Neurological Disorder. Whether you’re experiencing a temporary issue or dealing with a long-term condition, our team is here to support you in restoring your voice and improving your quality of life.

Speak and Swallow therapists collaborate closely with your diagnosing ENT specialists and respiratory physicians to ensure you receive the most effective, personalised treatment tailored to your needs.

To investigate further you may be recommended a Functional Laryngoscopy as part of your voice therapy treatment approach.
