Help your loved ones find their voice with Speech and Language Therapy
Speech and language delays, such as stammering or poor articulation, can lead to speech disorders that can impact your ability to fit in. Children and adults with speech disabilities may feel shunned by their peers and frustrated at falling behind at opportunities. This can lead to lowered self-esteem and various behavioral problems. Intervention at an early age with Speech and Language Therapy can help those who have trouble expressing their needs and ideas just like others.
At Plexus, our highly trained therapists offer both children and adults the best Speech and Language Therapy program in Bangalore. We work closely with them to understand their needs and track progress to improve confidence with each session. We also provide a Swallowing Therapy program that helps to increase their control of oral intake by lowering risk of aspiration and maintaining quality of life.
We employ a variety of advanced techniques, including:
Tongue exercises
Larynx closure exercises

Over time, Speech and Language Therapy helps children and adults immensely when it comes to:
Speaking clearly and intelligibly

What our patients say
Rama Murthy (name changed)
“I am a 59-year-old man from Bangalore. My speech has been normal since childhood. However, I suffered from speech disfluency and slurred speech in April 2015. I had to apply a little more force to speak. Unaware of any speech treatment, I thought that I had some throat problem and consulted an ENT. My ENT told me I had no problem with my ear, nose, and throat and recommended me to visit NIMHANS for Speech and Language Therapy.
I opted for Speech Therapy along with neuro consultation at NIMHANS for approximately 12 months. My condition was not cured completely. Since NIMHANS has a huge crowd, and the doctors treat more than 100 patients daily, they cannot pay enough attention to all of them.
Later on, I consulted two to three neurologists at private hospitals. However, my condition remained as it is. For the last two to three years I was suffering from stiffness in my lower jaw, stammering, and difficulty in speaking; even my voice became strained.
I searched on Google for a solution, and the place that came up was Plexus. So I decided to get treated at their center after considering Dr Na’eem Sadiq’s qualification and experience.
I am happy to say that my six-year-old problem is slowly getting cured to my satisfaction. With just a month of neuro treatment and Speech and Language Therapy sessions, I am a lot better. I think the reason was that the root of my problem was correctly diagnosed by Dr Na’eem and his team. I thank the entire Plexus team for the thorough consultation and treatment. May God bless them.”

Shiza Parvez (name changed)
"My mother is suffering from Motor Neuron Disease which affected her speech and swallowing ability. I was looking for help when I came across Plexus Neuro Centre. Here she underwent speech therapy and swallowing therapy under the guidance of Dr Na'eem Sadiq. The speech therapist did an excellent job due to which my mom's speech became clearer and she also started chewing food. She also gave us a lot of home exercises and tips to prevent choking while eating. Now she is able to swallow soft food easily. A big thanks to the Plexus team for helping us out."
