SpeechEasy is not a stuttering cure, but has shown effective improved fluency results in more than 75% of people who stutter.

While not a stuttering cure, SpeechEasy has been effective in improving fluency for more than 75% of the clients we've evaluated. This observation is reflected in the results of prescreening and fitting thousands of devices on people who stutter, of all ages, over the last few years. Our screening and evaluation process can pre-determine if a SpeechEasy fluency device will work for you.

What is the typical improvement in fluency?

While some who are fitted with a SpeechEasy device experience immediate dramatic improvements in fluency, others may not. Most initial users will experience moderate to significant improvement over time, with maximum benefits occurring as they become familiar and comfortable with the device.

Follow-up therapy with a speech therapist helps.

We have found that receiving follow-up therapy from a certified speech therapist can play a vital role in achieving the highest degree of fluency possible. These certified professionals can offer therapeutic training, exercises and advice that can help you get the most comfort and benefit from your SpeechEasy fluency device.

Improved fluency results in many speaking situations.

Whether the improvements in fluency are moderate or dramatic, SpeechEasy fluency devices have been proven beneficial for thousands of users in a variety of situations:

• Day-to-day conversations
• Business Meetings
• Reading aloud
• Telephone calls
• Presentations and speaking in front of audiences

Plus, our most popular device is so small, it has a virtually undetectable profile. In most situations people will not even be aware you're wearing one.

Positive customer surveys & studies reinforce our improved fluency findings.

A recent SpeechEasy customer satisfaction survey revealed that nearly 80 percent of our customers are satisfied with their decision to obtain their device and would still purchase it if they had the decision to make over again. Nearly 90 percent said they would recommend that their friends who stutter consider the device as a treatment option. In addition to improved fluency findings, people who use SpeechEasy also report a heightened sense of confidence, freedom and self-reliance as well as an improvement in social and professional relationships, which is the natural byproduct of being able to communicate more effectively.

Consistent with these survey results is a study published last year in the prestigious International Journal of Language Communication Disorders. The study reported that SpeechEasy significantly reduced the number of stuttered syllables, while helping to produce speech that was more natural-sounding. Results from a soon-to-be-published longer term follow up study are very much in line with those already reported.
