METHOD FOR ELIMINATING STUTTERING Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61B5/16 A61F5/58 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: treatment is three-staged: preparation, restoration and confirmation. At the stage of preparation, pseudostuttering is differentiated from true stuttering, and pseudostuttering is relieved; protein delivery is ensured to body muscles by nutrition correction taking into account the patient's blood type. Desynchronosis is eliminated by synchronising the patient's biological rhythms by matching pulse beats per minute and vocal exhalation rhythmicity accompanied by executing fist motions by clenching and opening it as a multiple of a given rhythm frequency, and a walking rhythm. Speech exercises aiming at developing speech fluidity, thinking and motor coordination exercises are performed. The stage of restoration involves eliminating the causes of true stuttering by activating respiratory, laryngeal and articulation muscles: stuttering is eliminated by localising respiratory spasms by the abdominals. Stuttering is eliminated where laryngeal spasms are localised, by adding laryngeal exercises to the above combined exercises, including internal laryngeal muscular contractions: sialophagia, singing, speaking, reading aloud; stuttering is further eliminated where articulation spasms are localised by adding speech apparatus muscle exercises to the above combined exercises and giving face massage, executing mimic exercises aiming at oro- and nasopharyngeal muscles exercises. At the stage of confirmation, the developed speech skills are confirmed until natural speech skill is developed, by keeping on doing restoration practices. The method enables the recurrence-free elimination of the causes of stuttering at any age and any intensity of stuttering with tonic or clonic convulsions of the vocal apparatus muscles, notwithstanding both neurotic, and neurosis-like types by applying correction and compensation non-drug therapy.

EFFECT: treating stuttering both under the guidance of a specialist, and independently.
