What is Speech Therapy?
Speech therapy is a treatment that enhances communication by improving speaking and language skills and fostering better expression, comprehension, memory, and problem-solving abilities. Some children need help talking and communicating whereas others need therapy to process and understand language better. Our healthcare providers assess the children to find out if anyone is suffering from speech disorders and recommend initial screenings. Appropriate treatment is recommended based on age, health condition, and specific challenges the child might face.
