What is PROMPT?

PROMPT is an acronym that stands for PROMPTS for restructuring oral muscular phonetic targets.

PROMPT is an evidence-based, multimodal approach that involves tactile-kinesthetic input to facilitate correct speech production. It incorporates the physical-sensory domain, cognitive-linguistic domain, and the social-emotional domain. By integrating multiple aspects of a person’s system, PROMPT offers a holistic approach to improving functional communication. PROMPT can be utilized with people ages 6 months through adulthood. It is most commonly implemented with children and adults with a diagnosis of apraxia of speech, but is also a useful tool for a variety of other speech sound disorders.

What is LSVT?

LSVT, or Lee Silverman Voice Therapy, is an evidence based treatment approach focusing on improving speech production in people with Parkinson’s Disease or similar neurological disorders. A major focus of the approach is on “recalibration” of the speaker’s perception of their own voice.
