Saturday, March 5, 2022
Join us Saturday, March 5th, for the pre-conference voice symposium! This pre-conference symposium will focus on updates and advances in voice therapy with a special focus on the intersection of voice, swallowing and upper airway and taking a deeper dive into gender affirming voice care, laryngeal breathing disorders, and peri-laryngeal massage and manual therapy. The day will begin with didactic lecture and then each topic will be explored in break-out sessions with the presenters. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, try out specific techniques, and practice application. Everyone will have the opportunity to attend all of the break-out sessions.
Audience: Intermediate level
The cost for the voice symposium is a separate registration fee from the main conference:
$140* if also attending the main conference
$150* if attending only the Voice Symposium
*If registering after Jan 23, 2022, add $20
