This qualitative study investigated the effect of Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) on wellbeing as perceived by individuals with Parkinson’s Disease. Participants who received LSVT indicated improved emotional wellbeing and family relationship, and increased hobby participation; whereas those without treatment reported loss of confidence, feeling embarrassed, and reduced activity participation.
