LSVT Global Commemorates Two Decades of Innovation and Three Decades of Empowering Communication Abilities

Pioneer in Speech Therapy Marks 20th Anniversary of Incorporation and 30th Anniversary of First Training Course, Coinciding with Better Hearing and Speech Month

TUCSON, ARIZONA, USA, May 31, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- LSVT Global, the developer of LSVT LOUD^®, a leading speech treatment for individuals with Parkinson's disease and other neurological conditions, is proud to announce the celebration of its 20th anniversary as a company and the remarkable milestone of the 30th anniversary of the first LSVT Training and Certification Course. These momentous occasions coincide with May being Better Hearing and Speech Month, making it a fitting time to reflect on LSVT's significant contributions to the field of speech therapy.

Founded in 2003, LSVT Global has dedicated two decades to advancing the treatment of speech and communication difficulties faced by individuals living with Parkinson's disease and other neurological conditions, including children with cerebral palsy and Down syndrome. LSVT LOUD, the company's flagship program, has transformed the lives of countless individuals worldwide by enhancing vocal loudness, speech clarity, and overall communication abilities. The scope of this work was eventually expanded to help people with Parkinson’s improve their movements through the development of LSVT BIG^®, a physical and occupational therapy program.

The LSVT LOUD program utilizes evidence-based techniques developed by esteemed speech-language pathologists, offering a specialized and comprehensive treatment approach. Through intensive therapy sessions, patients learn to recalibrate their voices, improving speech volume, articulation, and vocal quality. LSVT LOUD has not only empowered individuals with Parkinson's to regain control over their speech but has also expanded its reach to benefit adults and children with other neurological conditions.

As LSVT Global commemorates its 20th anniversary, it reflects on three decades of providing high-quality education and training to speech-language pathologists, physical therapists and occupational therapists around the globe. Since the inaugural LSVT Training and Certification Course in 1993, the company has strived to empower professionals by equipping them with the knowledge and skills to deliver LSVT LOUD and LSVT BIG effectively and with fidelity. LSVT LOUD^® is the only speech treatment for Parkinson’s disease that is supported by over 30 years of research with 8 million dollars of funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Together with research on LSVT BIG, there are over 200 peer-reviewed publications, including multiple randomized-controlled trials, that support the LSVT techniques. This dedication to research and education has resulted in improved clinical outcomes and widespread implementation of LSVT protocols by over 60,000 therapists in over 80 countries.

"It is with immense pride and gratitude that we celebrate the 20th anniversary of LSVT Global and the 30th anniversary of our first LSVT Training and Certification Course," said Cynthia Fox, CEO of LSVT Global. "We remain committed to our mission of transforming lives through innovative speech, physical and occupational therapies, and we are grateful to the clinicians, researchers, and individuals who have been part of this remarkable journey."

To mark this milestone, LSVT Global will be organizing various events and educational initiatives throughout the year, including webinars, courses, and symposiums. These activities will provide opportunities for speech-language pathologists, physical and occupational therapists, researchers, individuals with Parkinson's, and those with other neurological conditions to engage, collaborate, and further enhance their knowledge and understanding of effective therapies.

LSVT Global invites all those passionate about speech and hearing to join in the celebration of its 20th anniversary and the 30th anniversary of the first LSVT training course. Together, let us continue making a positive impact in the lives of individuals with Parkinson's and other neurological conditions through the power of effective speech treatments.
