Swallowing Disorder, medically known as dysphagia, is a condition where a person has difficulty swallowing safely and effectively. It can affect the ability to swallow solids, liquids, or saliva, leading to problems with eating, drinking, and even breathing. Dysphagia can occur at any stage of swallowing, which has three main phases:
Oral Phase – moving food or liquid from the mouth to the throat.
Pharyngeal Phase – moving the food through the throat while protecting the airway.
Esophageal Phase – moving the food down the esophagus into the stomach.
Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD), also known as paradoxical vocal fold motion dysfunction (PVFMD), occurs when the vocal cords close during breathing when they should be in an open position. This obstructive pattern makes it hard for a person to breathe. VCD is often misdiagnosed as asthma. An ENT doctor diagnoses VCD.
Our program is designed to reduce hoarseness or improve voice, effort, endurance, pitch range, or loudness. We have certifications in areas of voice disorders. Voice therapy is about learning how to change your voice habits and finding your way back to your natural, powerful voice.
If your vocal quality, pitch, or loudness is affecting your ability to communicate effectively, then you may benefit from voice therapy. Treatment is also appropriate for those who experience frequent discomfort or pain when speaking or singing. Many of our voice clients are teachers, singers, attorneys, salespeople, and fitness instructors, as these occupational groups are at most at risk for developing voice disorders.
A variety of issues can lead to undesired changes in your voice :
Some symptoms or Causes of Swallowing Disorder include
Medical or surgical treatment, including trauma to the larynx (voice box)
Hormone changes
Smoking
Talking for extended periods
Excessive coughing
Neurological conditions, such as Parkinson’s disease
Vocal Cord Paralysis
Benign vocal cord lesions such as cysts, nodules, or polyps
Excessive Muscle Tension
Age-Related Changes (Presbyphonia)
Some symptoms or Causes of VCD include
Wheezing
Coughing
A feeling of tightness in the throat
Hoarseness and voice change
Stridor
Shortness of breath
Trouble breathing in
Dysphagia often coexists with speech and language difficulties, especially in neurological disorders (stroke, Parkinson’s, ALS). Swallowing and speech share many muscles and neural pathways; treating one can support the other. Untreated swallowing disorders can lead to aspiration pneumonia, malnutrition, dehydration, and reduced quality of life.
