Various technological advancements in speech therapy solutions aiming to provide more effective and convenient treatments are further expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
Rising Incidence of Communication Disorders
The incidence of communication disorders has been steadily increasing over the past few decades. Various factors such as increased life expectancy, growing elderly population, rising air and noise pollution levels, and changed lifestyle habits have all contributed to this rise. Communication disorders can affect people of all ages but are more commonly observed in toddlers, school-going children, and the elderly. Some of the most prevalent communication disorders include speech sound disorders, language disorders, voice disorders, fluency disorders, and hearing loss. For instance, in June 2023, it was observed that 90% of individuals with Parkinson's disease encounter hypokinetic dysarthria, a multifaceted speech disorder. The increasing prevalence of such language impairments coupled with favorable reimbursement schemes for speech-language pathology services in the U.S. is driving the demand for these therapies and is anticipated to propel the market expansion.
