LSVT LOUD® (Lee Silverman Voice Treatment) is an evidence-based speech therapy program developed to improve vocal loudness, clarity, and overall communication. It was originally created for individuals with Parkinson’s disease, but its benefits extend to anyone with neurological conditions affecting speech and voice.
This intensive program focuses on retraining the brain to use a stronger voice through structured, high-effort speech exercises—improving not just volume, but also articulation, confidence, and intelligibility.
Although LSVT LOUD® was initially developed for individuals with Parkinson’s disease, its applications extend to anyone facing speech and voice difficulties due to neurological conditions. These may include:
Cerebral Palsy (CP): Individuals with CP may experience motor speech disorders like dysarthria, leading to weak or uncoordinated speech muscles. LSVT LOUD® helps strengthen vocal output and articulation.
Down Syndrome: Children and adults with Down syndrome often face challenges with speech clarity, volume control, and intelligibility. LSVT LOUD® promotes improved vocal strength and confidence in communication.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): Some individuals on the spectrum may speak with low volume, monotone voice, or reduced expressiveness. LSVT LOUD® targets vocal expressiveness, helping support more engaged and effective communication.
Stroke (Post-Stroke Aphasia or Dysarthria): After a stroke, many individuals experience impairments in speech production. LSVT LOUD® can assist with rebuilding vocal intensity and clarity.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS): MS can cause speech difficulties due to neurological damage affecting vocal control. LSVT LOUD® helps improve voice projection and intelligibility.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): TBI survivors often experience speech deficits. LSVT LOUD® supports retraining the brain to regain communicative function.
