Oralmyology is a non-invasive holistic approach that treats the whole body by working with the muscles of the face, tongue, mouth and jaw to create symmetry, balance and proper oral habits for a lifelong healthy posture.
We focus on Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMDs) such as mouth breathing, tight or restricted tongue and lip ties, improper chewing and swallowing patterns, tongue thrust, lip incompetence and oral facial habits to name just a few. These OMDs are linked to migraines, TMJD, facial development, asymmetry, poor breathing and sleeping habits.
Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy works with the root cause of these disorders by using methods of neuroplasticity and behavior modification techniques.
It takes a team to build long lasting results. Whether it be Myo or massage, treatment in combination with dentist, orthodontist, ENT’s, craniosacral osteopaths, therapists and chiropractors treating the whole body the way that it should.

Our sessions can be held virtually using Zoom or other virtual meeting apps. Exercises and assessments can be done safely without contact right in your own home or office. We even provide virtual assessments and consultations.
Every day we consciously and unconsciously use the muscles of our face and mouth. Like any habit, there are good and bad habits. Therapy promotes healthy habits and eliminates prolonged oral habits such as nail biting, lip sucking, thumb sucking etc.
