Speech Therapy
Speech therapy comprises the following areas: swallowing, speech, voice and language. Speech therapy is also involved in the treatment of facial paralysis and tracheal cannula management. Thanks to the large multiprofessional team with its many years of practical experience, we are also able to offer diagnosis and therapy in the case of complex dysphagia, associated in particular with tracheal cannulas.
