Speech and language therapy after stroke supports meaningful communication recovery.

Stammering or fluency problems

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age should a child's hearing be tested?
Newborn hearing screening is routine. Formal testing can be done at any age — BERA and OAE testing works even for infants. If speech or response to sound is delayed, seek assessment without waiting.
How do I choose the right hearing aid?
The best hearing aid depends on your audiogram, lifestyle, dexterity, and budget. An independent assessment and trial — not the most expensive device — gives the best outcome. THANC's advice is outcome-focused, not brand-focused.
Can speech therapy help adults after stroke?
Yes. Structured speech and language therapy significantly improves communication and quality of life after stroke. Earlier and more consistent therapy produces better outcomes.
Is tinnitus treatable?
Tinnitus has many causes and most are manageable. Treatment may include hearing aid fitting, sound therapy, counselling, and targeted medical care. A structured audiological assessment is the starting point.
Will THANC give me a written estimate for hearing or speech care?
Yes. After structured evaluation, our team shares a clear, itemised estimate. THANC's rates are consistently below prevailing Chennai market rates for comparable specialist care.
