Course overview
Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD) is a voice disorder caused by abnormal muscle tension in the laryngeal and peri-laryngeal regions, which interferes with normal phonation. While behavioral voice therapy is the cornerstone of treatment, manual therapy offers a powerful adjunctive method to alleviate tension, improve flexibility, and enhance voice quality. This comprehensive course is designed for SLPs, PTs, voice coaches/trainers, and other healthcare professionals seeking to understand the musculoskeletal components of MTD. You'll explore the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and evidence-based manual therapy techniques used to manage this voice disorder.
