Course Description

Step into the world of voice physical therapy with this dynamic two-day workshop designed for physical therapists. Learn from leading clinicians in voice management as you explore the anatomy and pathophysiology of the vocal complex and gain hands-on skills in manual therapy for the cricothyroid and surrounding structures. You’ll discover effective strategies to treat both performers and everyday voice users, with a focus on direct laryngeal work and integrated management of breath (thoracic–abdominal–pelvic), the cervico-thoracic region, and the jaw. Walk away confident in your ability to apply a holistic, evidence-informed approach and collaborate effectively within the vocal care team.
