Speech Easy® Fluency Device |
|
|
Now the 60,000 residents of Washington State who stutter will
have access to a centrally located retail outlet for the remarkable
anti-stuttering device known as the SpeechEasy®. The Seattle-based
Hearing, Speech and Deafness Center offers the small, hearing
aid style device that has proven immediately
effective
with up to 80% of users in increasing verbal fluency.
The SpeechEasy® is a fluency-enhancing device, working on a premise that
researchers have known for years: most people who stutter become more fluent
when speaking in unison with another person. The SpeechEasy® alters the speaker’s
own voice, either by delaying, changing the pitch or both, creating the illusion
of another speaker at the same time.
Although the device has been available for purchase since June of
2001, it has not been offered within the Seattle metropolitan area
until now. The SpeechEasy® has been featured prominently in the
national media, on programs such as the Oprah Winfrey show in February
of this year. It is estimated that 3 million people in the United
States alone are affected by stuttering.
If you would like more information about the SpeechEasy® device or would
