For Children
Speech development is a progressive journey that begins in early infancy and continues into early childhood. This process involves the coordination of the mouth, face, respiratory system, and cognitive functions. Although the timeline for speech development can vary from one child to another, we do have general milestones to help gauge whether a child is on track. If your child experiences difficulties with speech and language, we can help.
While speech development typically focuses on children, adults can also greatly benefit from speech therapy. Some adults seek therapy to address speech issues that persisted into adulthood, such as stuttering or articulation problems.
For Adults
Adults may require support due to speech difficulties stemming from neurological conditions, injuries, or surgeries. In addition to traditional speech therapy, there’s a specialized field known as orofacial myofunctional therapy. This approach improves speech clarity and communication skills by focusing on the muscles in the face, mouth, and tongue.
