SpeechDisorder was formed to offer a unique reference point on speech disorders: causes, treatments and therapies.

Speech, language and communication disorders affect a significant portion of the global population. From stammering to lisps, dyspraxia to dysarthia, a variety of speech disorders exist which make verbal communication difficult. But with proper diagnoses and treatments many speech challenges may be overcome or at least alleviated to the point that efficient communication becomes possible.

SpeechDisorder was formed to provide comprehensive information on speech disorders in the United Kingdom, including common disorders, common causes of these disorders, how these disorders may be diagnosed and possible treatments for the disorders.

SpeechDisorder also explores the variety of therapies which may be used both in speech-language therapy and at home to help those with speech and language disorders break through these communication barriers.

Though our writers update SpeechDisorder regularly, there may be subjects which they have yet to cover.
