One of the treatments for puberphonia is direct voice therapy. Techniques used include: (1) Cough:
The patient is asked to apply pressure to the Adam's apple and cough. (2) Put a tongue depressor on and examine
the throat; the patient is asked to say a few words. (3) While doing an endoscope, the patient is asked to say a few
words. (4) When a patient is asked to snore, many parents report that their children are snoring like an adult male.
This results in a change in the air flow and resonance, which is the physiological mechanism that reduces pitch.
The patient can practice continuously through uvula resonance with forcible air flow from the stomach or
diaphragm.
The voicing can be practiced at the level of the uvula by using a lower pitch continuously. Yes, we can
create and give an immediate result in puberphonia voice change, but we have to maintain it and make it a habit
