Psychedelics in developmental stuttering to modulate brain functioning: a new therapeutic perspective?
Front Hum Neurosci June 19, 2024 DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2024.1402549
Summary
Psychedelic compounds may offer hope for people who stutter by targeting brain networks involved in speech fluency. Early evidence suggests these substances could help rewire neural pathways and reduce speech blocks through their effects on brain plasticity and connectivity. While traditional therapies focus on behavioral techniques, this novel approach aims to address stuttering at its neurological roots.
