Guest guest Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Risca, Please, is this basically for children who have physical problems making the speech sounds?

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hi Margaret, It is mostly aimed at people who have difficulty producing the sounds when they need to. That could be due to some physical issues such as the strnegth of the muscles but could be due to the inability to volitionally find the motor plan to be able to control the muscles in the sequence that the child needs to to be able to say sounds/words/phrases. If you want some more information, feel free to email me with more about your son's strengths and I can tell you whether I think it would be of beneift or not.
