Experts from Beijing Normal University (PRC) offer their own method of working with stuttering. They believe that reprogramming the brain, the part of it that is responsible for speech functions, can get rid of it..

The new method was tested on 15 volunteers. First, they underwent a computer scan of the brain, and then they were subjected to intensive care.

During this therapy, participants had to perform speech exercises: repeat two-syllable words after scientists and read text from pictures..

Classes were held three times a day. Volunteers were also given a speech task at home..

This went on for a week. Then MRI scans were taken again, showing that the cerebellum began to work much more actively.. Another area, also associated with the formation of speech (Pars opercularis, too active in stutterers), on the contrary, has become calmer. During therapy, she relaxed and returned to normal - due to which stuttering almost completely disappeared in all subjects.
