What special techniques should be practiced by a person who uses their voice professionally as a singer or speaker?
Professional singers and speakers must take extra care, since their voices represent their livelihood. They also use their voices more than the average person under conditions that may cause additional strain. Trained singers are usually well versed in how to protect their voices. But many others, including commercial singers and professional speakers, may not be caring for their voices to prevent damage or injury that could have long-term implications on their voice quality. The Emory Voice Center team has special expertise with voice professionals.
