INOSTROZA-MORENO, Gonzalo. Philosophical orientations in voice therapy. The current challenge of discharge. Rev. Investig. Innov. Cienc. Salud [online]. 2021, vol.3, n.1, pp.116-124. Epub 11-Ago-2021. ISSN 2665-2056. https://doi.org/10.46634/riics.34.
The present article corresponds to a reflection about the philosophical orientations in the current vocal therapy. When there are some vocal alterations or disorders, we usually talk about an imbalance between the sub-sysmtems involved in the fonatory process, which are bellows (respiratory system), source (vocal folds) and filter (vocal tract). When there is not a correct balance, the system does not work properly and, as a consequence, it is possible to experiment symptoms such as hoarseness, foreign body sensation, pruritus, vocal fatigue, dysphonia or even aphonia. As a result of these difficulties, it is possible to generate compensations through the intervention of speech therapy. By virtue of this therapy the professional must ‘balance’. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to develop and analyze the different tools that philosophical studies offer through the history of vocal rehabilitation. Some of these tools are hygienic orientation, psychological, symptomatological, physiological and eclectic. Thinking on that, the professional must search what it is most suitable for every patient or group of people that he/she will be working with. This must be focus on improving vocal quality and the actual necessities of the patient, based on the current global context. The final purpose of the professional is to achieve a good and healthy process of training and/or rehabilitation to accomplish medical discharge.
