Train your voice. Trust your voice.

VocalCalm is for anyone who wants to improve or maintain their voice health. That includes people experiencing vocal fatigue or strain, those diagnosed with muscle tension dysphonia (MTD) or other functional voice disorders, teachers and professionals who rely on their voice, singers and performers, and anyone waiting for or supplementing speech therapy. Our exercises are grounded in techniques used by speech and language therapists worldwide.

No. While many of our users have been diagnosed with MTD or a related voice disorder, VocalCalm is designed for anyone experiencing vocal fatigue, strain, or discomfort. The exercises we include — such as semi-occluded vocal tract exercises and vocal function exercises — are widely recommended for general vocal health and prevention, not just treatment.

Many users report improvements in voice comfort with consistent practice; results vary by symptom profile, adherence, and baseline condition. Even short daily sessions can be helpful when technique quality is stable.

Muscle tension dysphonia is a voice disorder caused by excessive tension in the muscles around the larynx (voice box). It can cause your voice to feel strained, tired, or hoarse — even when there is no structural damage to the vocal cords. It is one of the most common voice disorders, and it responds well to the types of exercises included in VocalCalm.

VocalCalm is designed to complement professional speech therapy, not replace it. If you have been diagnosed with a voice disorder, we strongly recommend working with a speech and language therapist. VocalCalm is ideal for practising prescribed exercises between appointments, maintaining gains after therapy, or getting started while waiting for an NHS referral.

Absolutely. Any audio captured during exercises is processed locally on your device for real-time feedback and is never stored on our servers. Your progress data is encrypted and stored securely. We will never sell your data or share it with third parties. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time.

For most exercises, you just need your phone or computer — no special equipment required. Some exercises use straw phonation, which just needs a standard drinking straw. For exercises with pitch and volume feedback, a built-in microphone works perfectly. We recommend a quiet environment for the best experience.
