Speech Therapy
Home / Speech Therapy
Speech therapy is a useful tool for improving communication skills and minimising challenges caused by speech impairments in those who struggle with speech. Speech therapy improves pronunciation, strengthens the muscles used in speech, and empowers learning to speak correctly. From trivial problems like a scratchy voice to partial speech loss due to brain damage, speech therapy can be implemented for a wide range of speech impairments and concerns.
From nonverbal toddlers to stutters and lisps, there is no diagnosis too large or too small. We evaluate children using articulatory assessments, language-based testing and parent / patient interviews. Building on the specific speech and language needs, our team will develop an individualised plan of treatment supplemented with oral motor building exercises to prevent any regression.
We ensure children reach their full potential!
