Voice Health Through Vocal Hygiene – Not Just for Performing Artists

Voice health as a part of good health is not just for voice professionals. Just as hygiene plays a key role in general health issues and the prevention of diseases, vocal hygiene plays a key role in voice preservation and the prevention of voice disorders.

Components of Vocal Hygiene

Components of vocal hygiene are:

  • Healthy diet and lifestyle
  • Voice warm-ups before use
  • Voice training on proper technique to meet voice demands
  • Voice exercise to improve endurance and power
  • Proper voice use and avoidance of voice misuse and overuse

About Performance Voice

At Performance Voice Solutions, we offer the following services:

Our Voice Evaluation includes a comprehensive case history review, objective voice measures and a perceptual assessment of vocal techniques and patterns the patient uses for speech and/or singing.

Vocal Recording and Analysis includes quantification of the voice signal with respect to pitch, loudness, quality and variability as well as measurement of acoustic parameters

Voice Therapy is similar to slow-motion photography of the vocal folds. It is a method of evaluating the vocal folds under both halogen (static) and xenon (strobe) lights.

Voice Therapy is best described as physical therapy for the voice. Voice therapy strengthens and rebalances the voice through exercises and speaking/singing techniques in order to regain an individual’s best vocal quality.
