    Down Syndrome is a chromosomal anomaly in which the nuclei of the body's cells have 47 chromosomes instead of 46, also called trisomy 21. This change causes changes in the development and functioning of motor skills, cognitive, social and language; and body systems leading to delays in these areas to varying degrees. The general objective was to establish the benefits of the Benson Schaeffer Method for language development in patients with Down Syndrome. We worked through a clinical case analysis using an anamnesis card, in addition to the clinical history and the interview technique. The results obtained through the Rossetti Child Language Assessment Scale show the low points obtained by the patient, since these indicate a setback of 12 to 15 months, which for the scale is a serious warning sign, the girl in He is currently 2 years 2 months old and is making a great recovery in the area of language. In the other areas the patient is in a normal range. It was evidenced that the Benson Schaffer method of total communication is of great help to potentiate the language area where through the test it was known that the patient has warning signs, the method is new and innovative that can be applied and with the reinforcements and activities, good results can be obtained. Total communication as a language development program also serves to strengthen attention, concentration and memory, making it a complete program for the entire language area.
