Therapy at Peak Neurorehab

Speech therapy in Nairobi

Speech and language therapy helps people who find it hard to talk, understand, read or swallow. We work with children who are late to talk and with adults whose speech has changed after a stroke or brain injury.

Questions

Good to know.

When should my child see a speech therapist?

If your child is not babbling by 12 months, not using words by 18 months, or is hard to understand by age 3, an assessment can help. If you are worried, it is always fine to ask.

Can speech therapy help after a stroke?

Yes. Many people have aphasia or slurred speech after a stroke. Speech therapy helps you find words, speak more clearly and use other ways to communicate.

Do you help with swallowing problems?

Yes. We assess swallowing and give exercises and advice on safe food and drink textures.

Which languages do you work in?

Please ask us when you book, so we can plan sessions in the language your family uses at home.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes. Many insurers, including CIC, GA, Liberty and Vitality, settle bills with us directly. Some, such as AAR, APA, Jubilee and Minet, need to approve treatment first, and with others, such as Britam, Old Mutual and Sanlam, you pay and claim the cost back. Please check your cover with us before your first visit. You can also pay by M-Pesa, cash or card.
