I'm Mary Spremulli, MA,CCC-SLP, a medical speech pathologist and licensed nurse, with over 25 years of health care experience. Throughout my career,I have had the opportunity to lecture throughout the United States and in Puerto Rico, and currently provide educational seminars with Cross Country Education. Mary is also president of Voice Aerobics,LLC, a speech-language pathology private practice..
An Ohio native, and graduate of Cleveland State University, I relocated to Florida in 1989. Here, through my out-patient practice, I began to develop an interest in working with individuals with changes in their voice, speech or swallowing as a result of Parkinson’s, stroke, and other neurological disorders.
Voice Aerobics™ came about originally as an “after therapy” program for individuals who completed a formal treatment program. The weekly class, however, began to attract a variety of individuals, who liked the idea of combining vocal function exercises with a general workout. The dvd provides individuals with an opportunity to work-out on their own, in their own home, and perhaps provide them with an opportunity to maintain improvements they have already achieved through formal therapy programs.
I have learned, that as a therapist, the most I can offer you, the patients is :
knowledge about your illness or disease, a meaningful and relevent treatment program, and tools that allow you to continue to practice on your own. I hope you find this dvd useful and articles on this site meaningful as you progress on your own journey.
