Can stuttering be treated?
Yes, there are a variety of successful approaches for treating both children and adults who stutter. In general, the earlier, the better is good advice. Early intervention in pre school children improves the possibility of curing the stutter. Treatment in adolescents and adults does not cure the stutter, but it can provide effective control and coping techniques to deal with the stutter. This treatment generally requires a lifelong commitment by the person who stutters to work on their stutter and their control technique.
