Finding your voice with Parkinson's

Health Center Chatter Finding your voice with Parkinson's

April is National Parkinson’s Awareness Month, a time to recognize and support those living with Parkinson’s disease while increasing awareness about resources that can improve quality of life.

As a Speech-Language Pathologist, I work with individuals who experience changes in their voice, speech, and swallowing due to Parkinson’s disease. These symptoms are common, but therapy can help. With targeted exercises, lifestyle changes, and specialized treatment programs, many people can improve their communication and swallowing function.
