Speech & Language Therapy
Language therapy for aphasia focuses on improving communication skills through targeted techniques that enhance speech, comprehension, and word retrieval. Constraint-Induced Language Therapy (CILT) encourages individuals to use verbal speech by limiting nonverbal communication, promoting spoken language recovery. Melodic Intonation Therapy (MIT) utilizes rhythm and melody to stimulate speech production, making it particularly effective for individuals with non-fluent aphasia. Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA) strengthens word retrieval by helping individuals recall and describe words based on their meaning and related attributes. These therapy approaches are tailored to each person’s needs, supporting their ability to communicate effectively in daily life.
