Get started with Lax Vox technique
In the reeducation of vocal behavior, different methods or techniques are known that help to balance pressures - sub and supra glottal - to favor the vibration of the CCVV without added tensions and/or pressures. The work with this resource can be adequate in cases of vocal alterations, without lesion or with associated lesion, either with children or adults. Ideal resource for working with voice patients, with orofacial myofunctional imbalances, with brain damage, etc.
In the 1990s, Finnish speech therapist Marketta Sihvo developed a method called LAX VOX® as a vocal exercise to care for, regenerate and train the voice. As the name suggests, the name of the technique means relaxed and free voice.
How to perform LAX VOX®?
Roughly speaking, you need a tube and a container one third full of water.
Put the tube in the water and place the other end on your lips.
Find a comfortable posture, sitting or standing, and emit a sustained /O/ in a relaxed tone.
The water begins to bubble and allows you to feel the vibration.
By moving the tube up and down in the water we can find the measurement or depth that allows us to make this emission in the easiest possible way. Most people find maximum comfort in the 2-3 marks on the tube. It allows your cheeks to vibrate freely, the tongue is relaxed in the mouth and the jaw is also relaxed.
The lips close completely around the tube so that all the air enters the probe.
Enjoy the pleasant vibration for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the tube from your mouth after the indicated time. Sing your song, recite its lyrics, perform glides or short tones according to your vocal goal. Your voice should feel softer, come out effortlessly and feel balanced. Practice this 3 to 5 times a day.
