How Speech Therapy Helps MS

(402) 991-8959 CALL TODAY

Speech-Language Pathologists are specialists who evaluate and treat individuals who are diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) that have difficulty communicating and swallowing.

Research has shown as many as 40% of individuals diagnosed with MS have speech or swallowing problems at one time.

Often, individuals with MS have trouble being understood due to slowed and slurred speech (dysarthria) or reduction of volume / vocal quality (dysphonia). Since MS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, over time muscles become weaker and uncoordinated affecting ones swallow (dysphagia).

Speech-Language Pathologists at Fyzical Therapy and Balance Centers are highly trained specialists who evaluate and treat individuals who are diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.

What Our Clients Are Saying!

“Riley was diagnosed with torticollis at 1 month old. He is a twin and the tight quarters only favored looking one direction so much he developed a knot in his neck muscle that was very visible as well as a flat spot on the side of his head. With PT it has made a huge difference in his behavior and interaction! By starting right away when we were diagnosed and working a lot with him at home it only took about 5 months and his back to normal with his head control and development. Krysta gave us stretches and exercises that were easy to do throughout the day with a busy house of 3 kids."

“When I first started at Fyzical I was recovering from fractured tibia. I was using a walker after having been in a wheelchair for about 3 months. I was able to graduate to a cane and now an able to go without the cane around the house or short distances. I only use the cane when walking longer distances. The staff at Fyzical are all very caring and professional. They are friendly and encouraging."

“Since starting therapy I am sleeping better, less headaches and an overwhelming feeling of energy again. I was going through a depression due to headaches and neck pain. When I first started my therapy at Fyzical, with Amy’s help I finally understand what was the cause of the headaches. The entire staff were so helpful and patient with me. I would recommend Fyzical to my friends needing physical therapy."

“I had rotator cuff surgery in the spring. Following that surgery my shoulder was very weak and I was unable to move it without pain. I began me therapy with Fyzical and was amazed at how quickly my quality of movement improved with their help. I am now able to move with almost complete range of movement and have most of my strength back. I honestly believe I could not have attained this in less than 6 months with the staff at Fyzical."
