Can Someone with a Bad Voice Learn to Sing?

Have you ever wanted to work with a celebrity singing instructor to improve your vocal skills?  Do you feel that your speaking voice will make this difficult for you to achieve?  Schedule an appointment at Professional Voice Care Center, where you will be able to work one-on-one with a vocalogist to help enhance your singing abilities!  Our team of vocalogists have years of experience providing singing, speaking, and medical voice services to both professional and amateur singers.

What Causes Voice Problems?

If you notice that there are changes in your vocal pitch or you are experiencing extended periods of hoarseness, you may be suffering from voice problems.  These signs can be accompanied by other symptoms, such as pain, discomfort or a constant need to clear your throat.  There are several contributing factors of voice problems. They include:

  • Dehydration:  Vocal cords need to be moist in order to move properly as you sing.  When you are not sufficiently hydrated, this may cause your vocal cords to change in size or shape.
  • Voice overuse: The muscles of your mouth and throat can become fatigued or strained if you tend to talk, sing or yell a lot.
  • Smoking:  Your vocal cords may become irritated after smoking, which can potentially lead to long-term damage.  Smoking can also cause you to develop polyps, or growths, on your vocal cords, making your voice become low and breathy.
  • Allergies:  Vocal cords can swell during an allergic reaction.  Treating your allergies with antihistamines can also negatively affect your vocal cords, as it tends to reduce the amount of moisture in your throat.
  • Thyroid problems: When your thyroid is not producing enough hormones, it may cause you to speak differently or develop a hoarse voice.

How to Improve Voice Problems

At Professional Voice Care Center, our celebrity singing instructor has developed a voice therapy program that can help you address your concerns and improve your voice problems.  The program is done through the use of an interactive online platform.  Our vocalogists will create a personalized program to assist you with identifying and reducing the causes of your problems. You may then be asked to do the following: 

  • Practice new vocal techniques
  • Make lifestyle changes
  • Make changes to your diet
  • Complete printed handouts
