Welcome to Breathe Better Myofunctional Therapy!
I'm so glad you're here. Whether you're seeking relief from tension, improving your sleep, or supporting your child’s development, you’ve come to the right place.
My primary goal is to establish correct oral function and protect the airway, promoting lifelong health and well-being. I combine orofacial myofunctional therapy with head, neck, and intraoral massage to improve function, relieve tension, and support overall health.
Through collaboration with other providers, orofacial myology and therapeutic massage 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
- Improved overall posture and alignment
- Enhanced nasal breathing for healthy, quiet sleep
- Relief from TMJ discomfort, head and neck tension, and chronic pain
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 tailored exercises designed to retrain the muscles of the face, mouth, and tongue. It helps improve neuromuscular function to establish proper nasal breathing, lip seal, and tongue posture during rest, speech, chewing, and swallowing. By addressing individual patterns and needs, therapy can enhance breathing, sleep, digestion, and overall oral health while relieving tension and supporting proper craniofacial development.
