Article Abstract

Results of treatment of teacher's voice disorders were presented. Patients except pharmacological treatment and physiotherapy realised the course of voice emission exercises under speech therapist supervision. Ninety teachers were examined before and after treatment. Laryngological, phoniatric and laryngostroboscopic studies were carried out. In most patients phoniatric assessment revealed elongation of phonation time, changing of breathing route from cleidocostal to phrenocostal and voice creation without neck muscle tension after completing of treatment. 6 weeks lasting period of exercises was determined to be sufficient in most patients to learn correct breathing and phonation but to establish normal voice emission patient strong motivation, discipline and regularity during several months lasting exercises is needed.
