As we head into an exciting weekend in Lancaster, there are a few last-chance opportunities you won’t want to miss! This is the final weekend to enjoy Vesperman’s Pizza, so be sure to stop in and savor your favorites one more time. While you’re out and about, it’s also a perfect time to visit the farm and enjoy the adorable baby animals—a fun outing for all ages and a great way to soak in a bit of spring.


There’s even more happening around town! Be sure to check out the Holistic Wellness Fair, where you can explore a variety of health, wellness, and self-care offerings, and then swing over to the Food Truck Rally to grab a bite and enjoy some delicious local eats. It’s shaping up to be a full and fun-filled weekend in the community.


And the excitement doesn’t stop there—Sonny Day’s in Lancaster kicks off on Monday! Get ready to celebrate all week long with sunshine-themed events, activities, and community fun. It’s a wonderful way to come together, support local, and spread a little extra joy throughout Lancaster.


We hope to see you out and about enjoying everything Spring!

Madison Ryan, M.S., CCC-SLP, Earns SPEAK OUT!® Certification to Better Serve Individuals with Parkinson’s Disease

Dubuque, IA – April 10, 2026

Unified Therapy Services is proud to announce that Madison Ryan, M.S., CCC-SLP, has earned certification in the SPEAK OUT!® therapy program through Parkinson Voice Project.

The SPEAK OUT!® program is a highly specialized, evidence-based speech therapy approach designed to help individuals living with Parkinson’s disease and related neurological disorders improve vocal strength, speech clarity, and overall communication. Parkinson’s disease can cause the voice to become soft, monotone, or difficult to understand, significantly impacting quality of life.

Through this certification, Madison has received advanced training in techniques that focus on speaking with “intent,” helping patients strengthen the muscles used for speech and swallowing while promoting confidence and independence.

By adding the SPEAK OUT!® program to its services, Unified Therapy Services continues to expand specialized care options for individuals with neurological conditions, including Parkinson’s disease, dementia, ALS, and stroke-related impairments.

Patients interested in learning more about speech therapy services or the SPEAK OUT!® program are encouraged to speak with their primary care provider or neurologist about a referral to Unified Therapy Services. Madison is located at our Lancaster, WI clinic, below Medical Associates.

To learn more, please contact Unified Therapy Services at 563-583-4003 (option 4) or email frontdesk@unifiedtherapy.com.
