The Innovate Rehab & Wellness Team use Custom Therapies to Meet the Patient’s Specific Needs
Speech therapy offers treatment to many speech and language disorders:

  • Dysphasia/oral feeding disorders, including difficulties with eating and swallowing.
  • Expressive language disorders including difficulty putting words together, limited vocabulary, or inability to use language in a socially appropriate way.
  • Receptive language disorders referring to difficulties understanding or processing language
  • Articulation disorders include difficulties producing sounds in syllables or saying words incorrectly to the point that others can’t understand what’s being said.
  • Fluency disorders include problems such as stuttering, the condition in which the flow of speech is interrupted by abnormal stoppages, repetitions (st-st-stuttering), or prolonging sounds and syllables (ssssstuttering).
  • Resonance or voice disorders include problems with the pitch, volume, or quality of the voice that distract listeners from what’s being said. These types of disorders may also cause pain or discomfort for the child when speaking.
