Participants will be given the opportunity to experience several of the techniques in class.
Part 2
Voice teachers and singers who have already completed Therapeutic Techniques for Healing the Injured Voice (Part 1) are invited to join this higher-level course to discuss critical thinking as it pertains to developing a plan of care for the complex voice patient.
Several case studies will be discussed in class with the goal of establishing a hierarchy of decision-making and planning.
The class will work from a skills checklist and then determine how and when the singing teacher may participate in the remediation process.
