Sound or Speech disorders are the disorders of communication in which the normal sound and speech are impaired. This can result in a number of further disorders.In order to speak, some messages from the brain to mouth must pass on…these messages ultimately give signals how and when to make a move for making sounds. When a child has a condition called APRAXIA, the child could not be able to move their lips or tongue in the right ways even their muscles are not weak. Sometimes they may find it very difficult to initiate speech. This condition is also known as Verbal or Developmental Apraxia. The child can outgrow and improve their speech with the help of a speech therapist.
