Q&A Section
1. How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?
If your child is not speaking as expected for their age, has unclear speech, stutters, or struggles to understand or express, it’s best to get an evaluation. Early assessment helps identify whether it’s a delay or a disorder—and what support is needed.
2. What is the right age to start speech therapy?
There is no “too early” age. Children as young as 1.5–2 years can benefit if there are concerns. Early intervention leads to faster and better outcomes.
3. Do you provide speech therapy for adults?
Yes. We offer speech therapy for adults with stuttering, voice problems, speech clarity issues, and communication difficulties after medical or neurological conditions.
4. What happens during a speech therapy assessment?
We conduct a detailed evaluation of speech, language, and communication skills, understand your concerns, and explain findings clearly. You will receive a personalized therapy plan with realistic goals.
5. How many sessions will be required?
The number of sessions depends on the type and severity of the concern, consistency, and home practice. After assessment, we provide a clear therapy roadmap and expected timeline.
6. Do you offer online speech therapy sessions?
Yes, we provide online speech therapy that is structured, interactive, and effective—especially for families who prefer flexibility or are located outside Bangalore.
7. What are the signs of hearing loss in adults?
Common signs include:
-
Difficulty understanding speech, especially in noise
-
Frequently asking others to repeat
-
Increasing TV/mobile volume
-
Feeling that people are “mumbling”
A hearing test can give you clarity within minutes.
8. What tests are included in a hearing evaluation?
We provide comprehensive hearing assessments including:
-
Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA)
-
Tympanometry
-
Speech Audiometry
-
Special tests as required
These tests help identify the type and degree of hearing loss accurately.
9. How do I know if I need a hearing aid?
If your hearing test shows a permanent hearing loss affecting daily communication, a hearing aid may be recommended. We ensure trial, customization, and proper fitting before any decision.
