About
Integrative Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy, LLC serves children and adults with orofacial myofunctional disorders, which are disorders affecting the muscles and functions of the face and mouth. These conditions can impact breastfeeding, facial growth and development, chewing, swallowing, speech, jaw alignment, and temporomandibular joint function. The practice helps patients address long-standing oral habits and dysfunction that may affect their overall health and quality of life.
The practice emphasizes that oral health is fundamental to overall health. Treatment involves reeducating neuromuscular function through comprehensive therapy programs. For children, early intervention is prioritized to support proper growth and development, with an emphasis on correct body posture, tongue and lip positioning, nasal breathing, and healthy chewing and swallowing patterns. For adults, therapy addresses chronic habits like mouth breathing and low tongue posture that may have developed over time. The goal is to help patients regain comfort and function so they can breathe, sleep, eat, and speak better.
