Speech therapy is a healthcare service that focuses on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of speech, language, communication, voice, and swallowing disorders. It supports individuals across all age groups, from children with developmental speech delays to adults with neurological conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, or Parkinson’s disease. Speech-language pathologists work to improve articulation, language comprehension, fluency, voice quality, and cognitive-communication skills. Therapy may also address feeding and swallowing difficulties. Speech therapy plays a vital role in early childhood development, rehabilitation, and social participation. By improving communication abilities, speech therapy enhances educational outcomes, independence, confidence, and overall quality of life. Public health perspectives emphasize early intervention, accessibility, and integration into healthcare and educational systems.
