If you identify with any of these signs, have you thought about trying myofunctional therapy?

Myofunctional therapy isn’t just for kids - adults can see powerful changes, too.

Better breathing. Fewer headaches. A calmer jaw. Improved sleep. More energy.

Our muscles adapt at any age, and when you teach them to work with your body instead of
against it, everything starts to feel easier.

Curious what your tongue, lips, and airway have been up to all these years? It’s never too late to find out!

When we think about the tongue, we often think speech or swallowing - but its influence runs far deeper.

This small, powerful muscle connects into the fascia that supports the head, neck, airway,
and even posture!

A tongue that is weak, tethered, or poorly positioned can ripple through the whole system,
changing how we breathe, how we hold ourselves, and how efficiently our body functions.

That’s why myofunctional therapy looks beyond the mouth - to restore balance, strength, and connection through the entire body.

✨ Because when the tongue works well, everything downstream works better.

Swap your child’s pacifier for a Myomunchee! 👶🏻

The Myo munchee is an incredible tool to use to aid weaning from a pacifier! Not only will the Myo munchee give more comfort to your child than going cold turkey, but it will help to shift their oral development in a more optimal direction.

Why do we love the Myo Munchee? 🫶🏼

A) You can simply swap the pacifier and give them a big girl/boy pacifier AKA the Myo
Munchee! It’s much gentler than simply taking the pacifier away.

B)In the first post can we change the vergiabe of part B? I was talking to Paula and we don’t want to claim that we can move teeth. Worried about what other orthodontist might think.

B) The Myo Munchee is a much better alternative to the pacifier, especially after the age of one. Prolonged pacifier use can negatively impact oral development, including teeth alignment and palate shape, and may lead to persistent oral habits. In contrast, the Myo Munchee supports the development of healthy oral function and can be helpful tool to get things back on track.

Incorporate some Myofunctional Therapy in conjunction with the Myo Munchee and you have really got yourself a winning combination!

So your tongue is supposed to be, and it feels weird or unnatural?

There’s 3 main reasons why these issues happen:

1⃣ The tongue is restricted 🪢
If there is a tongue-tie present, the tight frenum beneath the tongue restricts the tongue
from being able to easily lift.

2⃣ Abnormal palate development 🎨
If the tongue has been resting low in the mouth, the palate is often, too small, too narrow,
or too high. This makes it harder for the tongue to fit!

3⃣ The muscles aren’t working 💪🏼 The tongue isn’t one big muscle, it’s lots of muscles! If you haven’t been using your tongue in the right ways your whole life, often you won’t know how to engage muscles for certain movements. Someone who is out of shape, or has never worked out, might not be able to do a push up. It’s not because their body isn’t made to do push ups, it’s just because theyneed to learn how to use the muscles in the right ways. The tongue is the same! 👅

We’re so proud of the progress this young client has made with myofunctional therapy! 🌟

With simple, consistent exercises, they’ve gone from restless nights and sore mornings to sleeping peacefully, breathing clearly, and even tackling new skills like swallowing pills and chewing with their mouth closed. Nasal breathing has made such a big difference - no more snoring, no more night wakings, and a happier, healthier child.
