Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects movement and can also impact speech and voice. LSVT LOUD is one of the therapies that aims to address some of the speech and voice difficulties that can arise in Parkinson’s patients. It involves a series of exercises and techniques designed to strengthen the voice and improve communication abilities. LSVT LOUD works to recalibrate the patient’s perception of their own voice so they can use a stronger voice at a more normal speaking volume.
