Respiratory Retraining for Vocal Cord Dysfunction
Has your child been diagnosed with Vocal Cord Dysfunction (VCD), Exercise Induced Laryngeal Obstruction (EILO) or Paradoxical Vocal Fold Movement (PVFM)? These terms describe the same respiratory problem. PVFM happens when the vocal folds close when they should open. This can make it hard to breathe. PVFM does not happen all the time and is often ‘triggered’ by experiences such as exercise, acid reflux, breathing in cold air, smoke or pollen, or stress. Following diagnosis, respiratory retraining with a skilled SLP is the hallmark treatment for this breathing challenge with many names. Patients typically find relief and ‘gain control’ over this difficulty with the right type of intervention from a knowledgeable provider! In-Home, In-Office, & Virtual Visits Available
Initial Evaluation: ~60 minutes $200. Follow up visit: ~60 minutes: $125
