Stuttering Solved

Stuttering solved

Hailed as a breakthrough by speech therapists throughout the country, the revolutionary treatment described in "Stuttering Solved" offers new hope for all stutterers. Here for the first time the actual physical mechanism that triggers stuttering has been pinpointed- what Dr. Schwartz calls a 'conditioned laryngospasm' or locking of the vocal chords - which is a learned response to stressful situations, and which, therefore, can be unlearned. This book is thoroughly documented with case studies and filled with such practical specifics as: how long it usually takes for the air-flow technique to become second nature, the eight motivational techniques that reinforce fluency for nearly all successful patients, and how to deal with the seven types of stress that provoke nearly all stuttering. A great book on stuttering, aimed for all ages.
