If you are a vocal professional, daily usage of your voice puts you at higher risk of vocal injury because of the duration and intensity of voice use, as well as limited opportunities for rest or rehabilitation. Unfortunately, it’s all too common for vocal professionals to simply keep pushing their voice until they start developing voice problems that limit their ability to perform at the level they need.
Vocal injuries can cause voice professionals to be sidelined from their work–sometimes even needing to cancel performances, shows, or presentations. But if caught early–or better yet, prevented in the first place–serious setbacks from voice problems and vocal injuries can be avoided.
