Frequently asked questions
Speech and language therapy helps children develop communication skills by addressing speech disorders, language delays, and articulation difficulties through structured interventions and exercises.
Speech therapy costs in Bangladesh vary, but services typically start at 10,000 BDT per session, depending on the provider and treatment plan.
Children can begin speech therapy as early as 18 months if they show signs of speech delay, but early intervention between 2–3 years is often recommended for effective results.
Encourage communication through interactive play, reading aloud, and repetition, while using simple words and gestures to reinforce speech development in everyday activities.
The best treatment includes speech therapy sessions, parental involvement, and tailored exercises focusing on language stimulation, articulation, and social interaction.
While some children develop speech later, a lack of words by age 3 may indicate a speech delay, and consulting a speech therapist for evaluation is advisable.
