What is Myofunctional Therapy?

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) is similar to physical therapy, but it focuses specifically the tongue, jaw, mouth and lips. I teach adults and children (over 7) a series of exercises over a period of time. The therapy helps teach proper tongue posture, nasal breathing, lip seal and proper swallowing pattern.

 

All these functions can have a direct affect an individual’s overall health.  Therapy helps retrain your muscles to function more efficiently to live a happier and healthier life. The exercises are simple, easy, and painless.

What We Do?

We provide Myofunctional Therapy which is a non-invasive approach to improve overall quality of life when it comes to breathing and sleeping habits. We assist in treatments for TMJ pain, sleep problems, breathing issues, tongue thrusting, headaches, and facial pain.

 

Our mission is to provide tailored support and care through every step of the therapy process. Orofacial mandibular disorders can cause pain, development issues, swallowing and speech problems. Myofunctional therapy can help clients achieve ease while eating, sleeping, breathing, and speaking. We believe in finding the root cause of these issues and using a holistic approach is help clients live, breath and sleep better.
