_Vocal Health in Professional Voice_ equips readers with the
knowledge, training, and practical tips they need to care for their
voices, boost performance, and avoid developing preventable voice
disorders.
The opening chapter discusses normal voice and the physical process of
human oral communication. Readers learn about the three individual
components of normal voice production—breathing, phonation, and
resonance—speech development, the neurophysiological aspects of
speech, voicing emotions, and more. Additional chapters explore voice
as a professional tool, signs of voice disorders, types of
occupational voice disorders, and how to prevent them. Basic vocal
hygiene standards, the importance of relaxation, and vocal technique
are addressed. The text offers a practical guide to active voice,
featuring an approachable and sustainable daily plan of vocal
exercises, oral aerobics to promote greater levels of strength and
flexibility to articulatory structures, isolated exercises for the
tongue, lips, and soft palate, tips for warming up and cooling down,
and more. The final chapter connects the material with real-world
professions, including teaching, performing, providing speech therapy,
broadcasting, telemarketing, coaching, leading a religious
organization, and serving as a politician.
A brief and informative guide, _Vocal Health in Professional Voice_ is
an ideal resource for any student planning to entering a vocation in
which they will use their voice frequently or in various capacities.
