Background. The primary clinical disturbances found in P.D. are: tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and postural instability. The rigidity is characterized by increase in the muscular tonus in entire body, and bradykinesia for motion deficiency. These are two main signs that cause alterations in the emission of the phonemes /s / and /l / and incoordination in the movements of the oral cavity. 2. Objectives. This research purpose to analyze the speech, concern to articulation process in people with Parkinson’s Disease (P.D.). 3. Material and Methods. Interviews, evaluations and phonological therapy were accomplished in six people that were in initial stage of the disease. 4. Results and Conclusions. According to obtained data, it was possible to analyze and to conclude that the precocious treatment in people in initial stage makes possible to reduce alterations of the articulation of the speech, providing speech’s intelligibility, resulting a better life quality.
