The Palatometer is a visual feedback tool that allows you and your client to see what is happening inside the mouth during speech. For the first time, you can see, in real time, where your client’s tongue-to-palate contact is occurring. Evidence-based practice, research and clinical studies show that clients using the Palatometer are released from therapy within months rather than years. In 95% of cases, neurotypical clients are released in 20 sessions or less and have 85-100% articulation accuracy. Those of us with children who have speech or language impairments are willing to pay for this type of result. To read more about the clinical studies and research, visit “Science Behind Success.”
The Palatometer is not only used for articulation remediation, but it has a large range of applications. The Palatometer has useful applications in a variety of speech-related disorders, including cleft-palate, hearing impairment and cochlear implants, developmental articulation and phonological disorders, apraxia of speech, dysarthria, swallowing, and fluency. It has been used successfully in children, adolescents and adults. Ask us about our coaching program to help you market and sell the Palatometer to your articulation clients, how to be successful using the Palatometer system and how to develop loyal advocates.

Three out of every ten kids struggle with speech or language impairment during developmental years.[1] A speech-language pathologist has asked the following questions at one point or another: “How am I going to differentiate myself from other speech and language therapy practices? How am I going to effectively correct a client’s speech and language impairment while running a profitable business?” As an SLP, you work extremely hard to fix a client’s speech-language and hearing problems only to send them away, hoping that they never have to return for therapy. At first, it may seem more logical to prolong the speech therapy process and build your business on the extremely difficult cases that remain in therapy for years. What if there was a solution that could allow you to release kids faster and at the same time build a fiercely devoted following who refer friends and family to you? Well, we invite you to investigate the Palatometer and learn how it can not only help you release kids faster, but help you run a more prosperous business based on predictable and consistent results.
