Embedded Files
We are skilled in the management of laryngeal dysfunction.
Laryngeal dysfunction refers to conditions where the vocal cords and surrounding structures do not function as they should. This can lead to symptoms such as coughing, throat tightness, voice changes, and breathing difficulties.
Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction
A condition where the vocal cords temporarily close or become uncoordinated during breathing, causing shortness of breath, throat tightness, and noisy breathing.
Chronic Cough
A persistent cough lasting longer than eight weeks, often with no clear medical cause, which can significantly impact daily life.
Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction
A condition where the upper airway narrows during exercise, typically during inhalation. This restriction affects airflow and can lead to shortness of breath.
Our Approach
We specialise in the management of laryngeal dysfunction, working closely with ENT and respiratory specialists to ensure a comprehensive approach. Our therapy focuses on:
✓ Breathing retraining – improving airflow coordination to reduce breathlessness and throat tightness, including during exercise.
✓ Cough suppression therapy – helping to break the cycle of chronic cough using evidence-based techniques.
✓ Voice therapy – reducing strain, improving vocal quality, and enhancing vocal endurance.
✓ Laryngeal desensitisation – addressing hypersensitivity to triggers such as strong smells, temperature changes, and irritants.
Our personalised therapy plans are designed to help you regain control of your breathing, reduce symptoms, and improve your overall quality of life.
