You can find different opinions in international literature with regard to treatment methods in neurogenic stuttering clients. While some authors found those methods used in developmental stuttering therapy suitable for neurogenic stuttering therapy, others suggest the use of different kinds of treatment including medical treatment or thalamic stimulation. In specific stuttering therapy, both stuttering modification and fluency shaping techniques have been used for neurogenic stuttering clients. More research is needed in order to provide evidence based treatment for clients with differences in symptomatology, type and size of lesion and so forth.
