Journal Title: Issues of Rehabilitation, Orthopaedics, Neurophysiology and Sport Promotion-IRONS - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Dysphonia most commonly affects people who use their voice professionally. Occupational voice disorders are accompanied by increased tension of the external laryngeal muscle what changes the position of the larynx and consequently disturbs the conditions of the vocal tract functioning. According to scientific literature, in order to carry out palpation examination of the anatomical structures indirectly and directly connected with the larynx a very good knowledge of anatomy and palpation experience is necessary, which falls within the competence of an osteopath. In this paper, we describe the published studies on the cooperation of osteopaths with phoniatrician and voice therapists in the treatment of occupational dysphonia. The purpose of the study is to describe an interdisciplinary approach of diagnosis and treatment of hyperfunctional dysphonia with special description of using osteopathic procedures.
