Summary
This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) games can make speech therapy more fun and improve how often people practice. Researchers will enroll 30 adults with voice disorders at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital. Participants will use VR speech therapy games at home and in clinic, and the team will track adherence, voice changes, and satisfaction compared to standard care.
