Myofunctional Therapy
We provide myofunctional therapy for individuals 4 years of age and older. Orofacial myofunctional disorders are caused by muscular dysfunctions that negatively impact the muscles of the face and mouth. These issues can affect proper resting posture, sleep, breathing, and speech sounds.

Who Would Benefit from Myofunctional Therapy?
Our myofunctional therapy helps overcome oral motor challenges that are affecting a wide variety of functional skills.
Speech Sound Distortions (lisp)
Support for individuals whose tongue placement affects how certain sounds are produced. Therapy teaches correct oral posture and movement to improve clarity.
Chronic Open Mouth Position
Help for those who keep their mouth open at rest due to habits, airway concerns, or low tone. Therapy builds strength and awareness needed for a closed, healthy resting posture.
Mouth Breathing Habits
Guidance for individuals who breathe through their mouth instead of their nose. Therapy encourages nasal breathing patterns and supports better oral and facial development.
Lip or Tongue Tie
Support for individuals whose oral restrictions impact speech, feeding, or resting posture. Therapy improves mobility and function before and after release if recommended.
Dental Abnormalities
Care for individuals whose oral habits or muscle patterns contribute to changes in dental alignment. Therapy supports proper tongue and lip posture to promote healthier development.
Tongue Thrust while Speaking or Swallowing
Help for those who push their tongue forward during speech or swallowing. Therapy retrains tongue movement for clearer speech and a more efficient swallow pattern.
Sleep Disordered Breathing
Support for individuals who snore, mouth breathe, or struggle with inadequate airflow during sleep. Therapy focuses on oral posture and functional patterns that promote better breathing.
Orthodontic Relapse
Help for individuals whose teeth shift after orthodontic treatment due to incorrect oral habits. Therapy strengthens proper tongue, lip, and jaw patterns to maintain alignment.
