Jami, I know several SLPs who dispense fluency devices and they provide therapy along with the devise for several reasons. First, it is important to learn how to best use the device once it is purchased. Second, since the device does not cure stuttering, supplemental therapy is useful in helping the client learn modification or fluency-enhancing techniques to assist them in managing their stuttering. Regards, Lynne
