Title: Integration of Physiotherapeutic Approaches in Puberphonia Management: A Fellowship Problem Statement by Dr. M. Kumaresan
Abstract
Background:
Puberphonia is a functional voice disorder characterized by the persistence of a high-pitch voice despite normal laryngeal development after puberty. Though traditionally managed within ENT and speech-language pathology domains, there is a growing recognition of the role of physiotherapeutic principles—particularly breath control, posture, and pharyngeal support—in optimizing treatment outcomes. Dr. M. Kumaresan, with extensive clinical experience in treating over 1,650 cases of puberphonia, proposes a fellowship problem that explores the integration of physiotherapy into a multidisciplinary treatment protocol.
