Puberphonia treatment is not on vocal cord

Puberphonia treatment is not focused on vocal cord.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
It is important to point out that the cord vibration is not a muscular action.When the cords are brought close to one another, the passing air creates a suction effect (Bernoulli principle), and the cords are brought together. As soon as the cords are together, there is no suction effect and the cords move apart.As soon as they are apart the suction is re initiated, and the cycle repeats itself.One can easily feel the difference between certain voiced and voiceless sounds. If you pronounce the initial sounds of the word pairs sip– zip and cheap– jeep and place your index finger on your Adam’s apple or place your index fingers in both ears, you should feel the buzz created by the voicing of /z/ and /dz
/; this effect will not be present in the production of their voice-less counterparts /s/ and /tf.

Puberphonia is not a Glottal source

Glottal sounds are in the minority in articulatory terms, since they do not involve the tongue: instead, the articulators are the vocal folds, which constitute a place of articulation as well as having a crucial role invoicing. English has two glottal sounds. The first is all phonic, namely the glottal stop, [ʔ], which appears as an intervocalic realization of/t/in many accents, as in butter 
. The glottal stop is technically voiceless,though in fact it could hardly be anything else, since when the vocal folds are pressed together to completely obstruct the air stream, as must be the case for a stop sound, air cannot simultaneously be passing through to cause vibration. The second, the voiceless glottal fricative [h], is a phoneme in its own right.

This article also give less importance to Glottal stop.I like to do more work on Glottal stop.The researchers on Tamil literature should help me with relevant Tamil references.

 Tholkappium not including Glottal sound.Raising wind starts from abdomen and moves the diaphragm (a muscular sheet below the lungs). On the way it touches 8 vocal organs. Chest,neck and head are the three places where they touch. Teeth, lip, tongue, nose and palate are the five places where they play before producing voice.

(According to modern science the larynx or voice box is the anchor of vocal folds. It impedes the airflow from the lungs to create vocal folds. A periodic cycle in speech organs produces phonemes.)

Omkara for Puberphonia

All the sounds, both consonants and vowels, are producedon this pulmonic egressive air stream, where the initiator is the lungs and the rest of the respiratory system, and the direction of air flow is out-wards: this is overwhelmingly the most common air stream mechanism in every language of the world. 
 The opening sound is produced on a uvula/velaric air stream,
(the peacock displays the divine shape of Omkara (அகவல் / ஆசிரியப்பா ) when it spreads its magnificent plumes into a full-blown circular form.)
 which operates only ingressively. When you make you can feel that the back of your tongue is pressed against the roof of mouth, stopping air from moving any further back; a little air is then drawn into the mouth further forward, and the closure with the tongue is released to make a initiation of speech.

Puberphonia voicing

Speech is purely human and non-instinctive method of communicating ideas, emotions and desires by means of a system of voluntarily produced symbols.Speech is human behavior and non-instinctive. By human, it means only normal humans possess it.Puberphonia boys have a normal communication system, but it is not mutated. By non-instinctive, it means that it is not acquired and that a male has to mutate the phonatory apparatus to learn the puberphonia voice change.

Puberphonia Phonology

Treatment of puberphonia by articulation change.
We have realized as various different phonemes, so we must build up a  picture of all the possible environments where that phoneme can occur and what happens there, to sort out how it behaves.I am today, of course, working within my Language prodosy ( யாப்பிலக்கணம் ).
Speech is audible because the movements of articulators cause the air to vibrate, forming sound waves which travel to the hearer’s ears, and set up vibrations in her inner ear,which are then translated into sounds again by the brain.
