What is speech therapy?
Speech therapy (logopedia in Spanish) is the discipline that covers the study, prevention, assessment, diagnosis and treatment of disorders of language (spoken, written and gestural) that show up as problems with the voice, speech, communication and orofacial functions.
What is a speech therapist?
Speech therapists are the professionals responsible for rehabilitating communication, spoken and written language, voice, speech and the associated oral functions (breathing, chewing and swallowing). In Spain they are registered healthcare professionals under the Health Professions Act.
How our speech therapy service in Valencia works
We start working on rehabilitation goals from the very beginning.
In the first session we carry out an initial interview to understand the specific case and apply a series of tests to reach an initial diagnosis. The aim of the assessment is to get to know the patient, observe their symptoms and find their origin, in order to propose the rehabilitation approach best suited to their needs.
We provide a service designed to get the most out of every session. Sessions last 45 minutes; they are individual and personalised, and always with the same speech therapist throughout treatment.
Our speech therapists in Valencia work every day to offer the highest quality and professional care at the best price. See our fees.
From the first session and throughout treatment we give guidelines to both the patient and their family, so they can take an active part in rehabilitation.
The length of treatment depends on the disorder, the patient's age and whether other conditions are present; there is never a preset duration.
A main objective of our team is to offer a personalised service adapted to the needs of the patient and the family. We believe treatment can always be adapted to the specific needs of each case.
