What Is Speech Therapy? 

Speech therapy is specialized care for challenges related to speaking, swallowing, understanding, and memory. It’s especially valuable after a stroke or surgery, but it also benefits those living with Parkinson’s disease, ALS, dementia, and other conditions that affect communication. 

Speech therapy services may include: 

• Exercises to strengthen muscles used in speech and swallowing 
• Training to make words clearer and conversations easier to follow 
• Cognitive activities that support memory, focus, and problem-solving 
• Strategies for safer eating and drinking to reduce choking risk 
• Education for families on how to encourage progress at home 

When Speech Therapy Helps Most

Families often seek speech therapy after noticing changes that disrupt daily routines. Sometimes it’s the slurred speech that makes phone calls harder. Other times it’s frequent coughing that turns mealtime into a source of worry. Even subtle changes, like confusion when following directions or difficulty remembering names, can be early signs that therapy is needed. Addressing these challenges with professional support helps maintain safety, independence, and dignity at home.

The Results You Can Expect to See Over Time

Speech therapy doesn’t provide overnight results, but consistent support often leads to noticeable improvements that bring relief to the entire family. You may find that conversations start to flow more easily, meals become less stressful, and memory exercises lead to better participation in daily activities. Even small gains, like clearer pronunciation or greater comfort during mealtime, can make a big difference in quality of life. Your family will also benefit from learning techniques you can use every day to further help the person you love.
