Dubai, UAE, Aug 8, 2022: Speech Therapy is a specialty practiced by Speech Language Pathologists that focuses on improving or intervening with a person's speech, language, cognitive skills, communication, voice, and swallowing issues. These concerns could be expressed by either a child or an adult.
PROMPT is an acronym that stands for Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets. The technique is a tactile-kinesthetic approach that employs touch cues to a patient's articulators (jaw, tongue, and lips) to manually guide them through a specific word, phrase, or sentence. The technique improves motor control and the development of proper oral muscular movements while removing unnecessary muscle movements like jaw sliding and inadequate lip rounding.
Individuals suspected of having motor speech disorders, such as childhood apraxia of speech, dysarthria, and/or difficult-to-understand speech, should see a speech-language pathologist. A motor speech disorder can be a separate diagnosis, but it can also be a component of other conditions such as expressive/receptive language disorder, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), intellectual disabilities, learning disabilities, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), and various psychological and emotional disorders.
