The Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) helps people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD) or other neurological conditions improve how they move and speak.
Parkinson’s disease is a brain disorder that affects movement. Over time, the condition leads to shakiness and problems with walking and balance, as well as speech and swallowing issues. Research has shown that LSVT programs improve function by emphasizing the brain’s neuroplasticity, which is the ability to strengthen the brain’s neural pathways.
If you have Parkinson’s disease (PD), LSVT BIG training can help you recalibrate and recognize when your movements are smaller or slower than you realize so you can improve the quality of your physical movements.
LSVT BIG focuses on endurance, activities of daily living, and balance to improve function. The program has been proven to help you recalibrate your brain from smaller movements brought on by PD to bigger, more typical ones by emphasizing big movements and big stretches.
Goals include:
Treatment includes repetition and progressive challenges to improve consistency of movement

LSVT LOUD is a research-based treatment for speech and voice disorders in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and other neurological disorders. You complete the treatment one-on-one with an LSVT LOUD® certified speech-language pathologist based on your individual communication goals. The program trains you to use your voice at a more normal loudness level and to recalibrate your perception of your voice so you feel comfortable using a stronger voice when communicating at home, at work, or in the community. The program has demonstrated both short and long-term improvements in communication function.
Benefits include:
An evaluation by a Doylestown Health LSVT LOUD® certified speech-language pathologist
You will need a clearance from an Ear, Nose, and Throat physician (ENT) prior to starting the program, which requires high breathing and vocal effort to improve communication function. Your ENT clearance may be completed prior to or after speech therapy evaluation.
For more information, contact the Clark Outpatient Rehabilitation Center at 215.345.2894.
We offer various screenings and assessments to diagnose medical conditions and disabilities and to gauge skills in everyday activities.
Electrodiagnostic (EMG and nerve conduction) studies play an important role in evaluating patients with nerve and muscle disorders.
