Muscle Tension Dysphonia

Whether you're struggling to find a solution that works or are newly diagnosed, MTD can have a big impact on how you sound. Vocal strain caused by excessive muscle tightness can occur even when there's no known cause. Harmonic Speech's voice specialized speech therapists can teach you to speak and sing without strain, hoarseness or vocal fatigue, with minimal vocal effort.

Muscle Tension Dysphonia Treatment

Diagnosis

Your laryngologist will use videolaryngostroboscopy to diagnosis MTD.

Comprehensive Voice Evaluation

We will examine your head, neck, and larynx (voice box), as well as assess how you use your voice and what your voice sounds like.

Voice Therapy

Learn vocal exercises to relax your throat muscles, reduce strain, improve breath support, and optimize your resonance
Find your optimal pitch and volume for healthy, strong speaking.

Manual Therapy, Stretches and Massage

Targeted manual therapy reduces excess muscle strain in the muscles that impact your voice, which relieves discomfort and strain
Gentle head, neck and torso stretching and massage also reduce muscle tension, and can be continued at home

H.H.'s Experience

I developed MTD after laryngitis. I completely lost my voice for several months, and was scared I would never be able to talk to my grandkids again. That changed completely when I worked with Tallulah. The best part is that now I rarely think about my voice, it just works. I'm so lucky to have someone so warm and welcoming as my voice therapist! I cannot thank you enough for all your encouragement and help getting my voice back.

For anyone struggling with voice problems - whether speaking or singing - I strongly encourage you to work with Tallulah. There's no need to risk invasive treatments when you can instead learn a completely natural and healthy way of speaking.
