Parkinson's disease causes changes in the central nervous system and in the respiratory and phonatory systems. Vocal alterations are also present, such as reduced vocal intensity, changes in vocal quality and monotonous voice. As a form of treatment, the literature shows the use of resonance tubes to promote improvement in vocal quality and intensity. Therefore, it is believed that sessio…
