Abstract

|
Voice therapy after post-thyroidectomy dysphonia is designed to improve glottal closure without supraglottic hyperfunction by development of abdominal support for breathing and intrinsic muscle strengthening exercises. Regarding voice therapy of unilateral vocal fold paresis/paralysis, several techniques such as head positioning, digital manipulation, pushing and pulling method are used for trial or temporary therapy. And the holistic voice therapy such as LSVT, Accent method, VFE are useful for hypofunctional voice disorders. These may be effective interventions as a temporary improvement until normal voice recovers or may provide the essentials for long-term rehabilitation.
