Steve Hill Stammering Cure

I often wonder why speech therapists and other so called specialists continue to advise that there is no known cure for stammering. It is widely known, especially here in the UK, that for people who are determined to work hard and who are prepared to put in the required amount of practice that stammering can be overcome. What's more many many people have managed to achieve fluency and are now able to enjoy a life free from the fear of stammering.

I am asked on a regular basis whether there is a cure for stammering. The people asking the question have often been mis-informed by their local speech therapist and are then more than pleased to be told differently.

The majority of people who have a stammer are fully prepared to put in the necessary required hours of practice as they are determined to achieve total fluency. There are numerous forms of stammering therapy that can help them to attain their goal of fluency. These range from one-to-one stammering speech courses, which are normally held over a three or five-day period, to self-help therapy products which include audio books, DVD's and e-books.

The speech coaches who are offering these forms of stop stuttering treatments are usually people who have managed to overcome a stammer themselves and who therefore fully understand what it is like to have this form of speech impediment.

So is there a cure for stuttering? Yes there is!

So why do speech therapists say otherwise? Well who knows the answer to this question. Perhaps a few of them could answer the question for themselves. It could well be because they are unable to provide the stammering cure through their own speech therapy.

A question that I would like to know an answer to is this: Why have the speech and language therapists not contacted the real specialists from the world of stammering therapy to ask them about the techniques that they teach to help people to attain total fluency? Again who knows? I certainly do not.
