Treatment for spasmodic dysphonia is designed to help lessen the symptoms
of the vocal spasms
and improve the quality of the person's voice. Most therapies are
symptomatic, attempting to cover up or release the
dystonic spasms and no single strategy will be appropriate for every case.
The goal of any treatment is to achieve the greatest benefits while
incurring the fewest risks. It is to allow you to lead
a fuller, more productive life by reducing the effects of spasmodic
dysphonia. Establishing a satisfactory regimen requires
patience on the part of both the affected individual and the physician.
