What is Myofunctional Therapy?
Myofunctional therapy is like physical therapy for your face and mouth! This treatment uses exercises to improve the function of the muscles in those areas. It can help with Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMDs), which are abnormal muscle patterns in the face and mouth. OMDs can affect people of all ages.
​
Our Occupational Therapist works with children and adults virtually using myofunctional therapy to strengthen the face and mouth muscles helping you become more aware of their movements and developing proper tongue posture.
​
Let us help you or your child sleep better, stop headaches & jaw pain and improve swallowing and picky eating!
