Strengthening your vocal chords

Has anyone used a karaoke app to provide vocal exercise? If so which one have you used?

Thanks!

  1. Hello, I'm not sure myself but I'm sharing this post with Marc Mitnick, a fellow team member who is a speech therapist. Marc, do you have any thoughts on this topic? Suzanne Troy, ParkinsonsDisease.net Team Member

    1. Ive recently started Big and Loud vocal training. It has made a world of difference. Many of my Parkie friends are talking quieter and some of the long term members cannot be heard even with your ear to their mouth. I would say GO FOR IT! Also good to know Medicare covers much of the cost

      1. I am scheduled to begin the Big and Loud Voice therapy in March and am looking forward to it. My voice fluctuates in volume according to the time of day and my allergies and has become softer. To make matters worse my husband is extremely hard of hearing.We thought it was all his issue until a friend noticed I was quieter.Using karaoke is a great idea.I do sing along to the radio but get winded and sound like a frog.
