The spoken word is the bedrock of much of our communication. Without it, we lose critical information that helps us to empathize with and understand others. That's why, when your voice begins to falter for once reason or another, it's important to find ways to restore what has been lost to allow you to communicate as normally as possible. In the same vein, those whose voices aren't damaged, but who regularly use their voice, whether for work or recreation, need to do all they can to protect their voice, so that they never have to deal with the life-altering realities of having their voice diminished or lost.
Fortunately, in all of these situations, there are options available to augment and assist the human voice. Through the application of technology, these devices, known as "voice aids," "speech aids," or simply "speech amplifiers," are revolutionizing what the human voice can do, and allowing even those with no voice at all to still be able to communicate. Not only that, but they continue to develop to sound more natural, not to mention being more portable and easy-to-use. Combined, this means that there are voice aids available for every situation, for every type of person, and for every budget.
