Vocally speaking… Who do you think your worst enemy is...

The answer is… Your Subconscious Mind!!

You must know that the signal from the brain first comes out of the subconscious mind, and only then will it trigger the desired action...

Evidently, the action always comes first before the conscious mind realizes it.
That is why it is so difficult to get rid of old bad habits - like bad posture, which interferes with the proper projection of the sound, wrong speech patterns, wrong formation of the syllables, vowels, and words in general.

Especially concerning MTD (MuscleTension Dysphonia) or SD (Spasmodic Dysphonia) sufferers, I found that they experience complete misalignment between their subconscious and conscious minds, as well as their physical bodies - and that’s where, as a result, their voice becomes completely out of balance…

Needless to say that their coordination and synchronicity between their mind commands to the physical body and to the voice are totally not intact. Obviously, those components listed above must be thoroughly realigned…

Nonetheless, it is obviously not an easy task - both for the client and for the voice repair practitioner.

For both parties, it requires a lot of patience, physical stamina, balanced emotions, learning skills, and the ability to let go of old habits as well as old beliefs - and, most importantly, retain the adapted new knowledge and the new modality of the completely new behaviour.

To instill all of the above, it would require from the voice care provider a specific set of skills, as well as extensive knowledge, experience, and expertise.

The combination of the latter and the former will surely guarantee that, nevertheless, unprecedented results will be achieved!

In this instance, it is crystal clear that it takes “two to tango”.
