Voice & Chronic Cough
We help adults experiencing voice changes or chronic cough that isn't explained by illness. Whether you’re dealing with hoarseness, vocal fatigue, or a persistent cough, therapy is designed to restore healthy voice use, reduce strain, and build confidence—especially for professionals who rely on their voice.
Treatment Areas:

Voice Disorders
Includes muscle tension dysphonia, vocal fatigue, hoarseness, breathiness, and age-related voice changes (presbyphonia). These can cause your voice to sound strained, tired, or weak, making everyday communication difficult or uncomfortable.

Chronic Cough
A persistent cough lasting longer than 8 weeks with no clear medical explanation (often called neurogenic or refractory cough) should only be considered after a thorough medical evaluation has ruled out other possible causes. Therapy focuses on reducing the frequency and severity of coughing using behavioral and vocal techniques.

Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction (ILO)
Previously known as paradoxical vocal fold motion (PVFM) or vocal cord dysfunction (VCD), this condition causes the vocal folds to close during breathing, often mimicking asthma. Symptoms include shortness of breath, throat tightness, and voice changes, especially during exercise or stress.
