VOCAL PHYSIOTHERAPY

Vocal Physiotherapy is a specialized therapy which involves treatment of the structures of the body which we use in voice production.  This may include a hands on approach to treatment of the myofascial, muscular and cartilaginous structures of the larynx and the surrounding region, to produce efficient vibration of the vocal folds, and improve voice.

​

Voice Physiotherapy is for anyone who uses their voice a lot or has vocal quality issues. These may include:

• Increased effort or tension with speaking/singing (vocal fatigue)

• “Tongue root tension” in singing

• Regular loss of voice

• Poor vocal quality-breathy, quiet, raw or horse sound

• High load of voice use

• Dysphonia’s (Including Muscle Tension Dysphonia)

People with increased vocal load may include singers and performers, teachers, lawyers, receptionists, lecturers and radio announcers. This group often present for a “vocal tune up” to maintain their laryngeal mobility and tissue health

​

We currently have 2 Christchurch locations:

1. TuneUp Physio Village Health: 30 Lincoln road
