Welcome to Breathe Better Myofunctional Therapy!
My primary goal is to establish correct oral function in order to protect the airway. This is accomplished through various modalities in order to improve and maintain lifelong health.
Through collaboration with other providers, orofacial myology can achieve the following:
- proper growth and development of oral structures in young children
- correct swallowing patterns that promote healthy digestion
- resolution of speech issues related to tongue ties
- correct overall posture
- improved nasal breathing for healthy, quiet sleep.
I would love to partner with you to achieve these goals!
What is Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy?
Orofacial myofunctional therapy (also called orofacial myology) is a series of therapeutic exercises that aid in neuromuscular repatterning to help establish nasal breathing, lip seal, and correct tongue posture while resting, speaking, chewing and swallowing.
"There are so many critical things about nasal breathing that make us healthier."
