Abstract

Voice plays an important and fundamental role in building one’s personality and communication skills. The professions like teaching, singing, narration and leaders are highly dependent on voice quality to meet their professional commitments. Surprisingly as per the study, the prevalence of voice disorders among those aged 24–34 years was about 6%. This expresses the need for public awareness focusing on improving voice quality. Ayurvedic classics show specific connections between vocal characteristics and Prakriti. Prakriti is an integral tool of P4 medicine and also decides the specific pattern of susceptibility for disorders in individuals. This study aims to review the association between Prakriti and voice quality and to highlight the measures to improve the voice quality. For the topic Ayurvedic-modern literature along with related articles, journals were reviewed. Classical preventive measures in relation to their Prakriti could be the part of lifestyle in voice professionals helping in developing the strategies for voice care and in preventing voice problems.
