Singing may improve Parkinson’s symptoms. A new study has found that singing may be used as a voice therapy to help Parkinson’s patients. While symptoms differ from person to person, 60-80% of people with Parkinson’s experience some type of vocal change such as becoming monotone, speaking in a whispered voice, or losing vocal pitch. While typical Parkinson’s treatments don’t cover this area, singing, a form of voice therapy, may help improve these impairments. In one study, researchers found that in two months of singing, volume, swallow control, and pitch were noticeably improved. While further research is required to determine how and why this practice can improve these symptoms, for the time-being it is showing great potential.
