Voice therapy & facial palsy — your expression back

Voice and facial expression are our most important means of expression — we help you regain both.

What is voice therapy and facial palsy treatment and how does it support voice and expression?
What do we treat here?

When voice and expression no longer follow

Voice disorders in neurological conditions and facial palsy are two different problems with one thing in common: they affect how we express ourselves and how others perceive us. Our specialist speech and language therapy in Graz treats both in a focused, individual way.

In voice disorders after stroke or in Parkinson’s we train volume, tone and stamina of the voice. In facial palsy we work on facial movement, oral motor control and the consequences for speech and swallowing — in close coordination with the therapy team.

“When a smile becomes possible again — that is when we know we are on the right path.”
What you gain

What changes for you

Voice and facial expression are fundamental to relationships and taking part in life — improvement here changes how you experience yourself and how others experience you.

😊

Your facial expression returns

Training facial movement in facial palsy improves symmetry and expression — a natural smile becomes possible again.
🔊

Your voice becomes stronger

Voice strengthening improves volume, carrying power and tone — you are heard and taken seriously.
🗣️

Speech becomes clearer

Facial palsy often affects articulation — targeted oral motor exercises improve how well you are understood.
💪

Your confidence grows

Being able to speak expressively and smile again means approaching people again — social life comes back.

Who is this therapy for?

Does this sound familiar?

Voice problems and facial palsy can have different causes — we treat all neurological forms.

If facial palsy makes your face asymmetrical, if your smile works only on one side or the mouth droops — facial palsy therapy is best started as early as possible.

If voice problems arise after a stroke — hoarseness, vocal fatigue or a very quiet voice — focused voice training improves quality and carrying power.

If you notice that your facial expression has changed, if friends ask whether something is wrong, or you no longer recognise yourself in photos — it is time for specialist therapy.

⭐ Success story
Success story

Vor 30 Jahren stellte ein Autounfall Christophs Leben auf den Kopf.

Vier Wochen lag der gebürtige Wiener im Koma, weitere drei Wochen im Tiefschlaf. Danach musste er alles neu lernen: schlucken, sprechen, stehen, gehen. Nachdem er nach dem Unfall Schlucken und Sprechen neu erlernen musste, arbeitete er hier weiter an der Stabilisierung seiner Sprech- und Schluckfunktionen. Das gab ihm zusätzliche Sicherheit im Alltag.

Frequently asked questions

What you want to know

The key answers at a glance — so you arrive well prepared.

What can be treated in facial palsy?▾
We train facial movement, oral motor control and articulation specifically. Swallowing problems and changes in the voice caused by the palsy can also be treated.
How long does it take for facial palsy to improve?▾
That is very individual and depends on the cause and the severity. Starting therapy early markedly improves the outlook — please get in touch as soon as you can.
Does voice therapy also help with voice problems after a stroke?▾
Yes — changes in the voice after a stroke, such as hoarseness, vocal fatigue or a changed pitch, can be markedly improved with focused voice therapy.
Can I keep working and speaking during therapy?▾
Yes — provided the condition allows it. We advise you individually on what rest makes sense and how to protect your voice and facial muscles in daily life while still training them.
