What is Myofunctional Therapy? 🤔👄 It’s all

What is Myofunctional Therapy? 🤔👄
It’s all about helping the muscles of the face, mouth, and tongue work the way they’re meant to — for better breathing, eating, speaking, and sleeping.

From mouth breathing to tongue thrusts to oral habits like thumb sucking — myofunctional therapy targets the root causes, not just the symptoms. 💪💤🍽️💬

In this field, there’s room for all of us — because we’re in the business of helping people. 🤍 If you’re a provider and we share a mutual client, please let’s collaborate!

If you’re one of my trusted providers reading this, I’m so grateful for you! NOVA is unmatched with the effortless collaboration to put our clients in the right hands to receive comprehensive care! 🤟

If you’re looking to “Pick my brain”?
🫶Ethically, that’s not in my DMs. If you’ve asked for advice and I’ve referred you to someone in your area or to book a consult it’s because 1. There are restrictions with my license and 2. Quality support comes from individualized care — built through thorough background information, understanding your goals, and a plan tailored to your journey.

If you’re a parent, student or provider who wants to pick my brain, I offer 1:1 virtual coaching calls — because working together moves us all forward.

We offer:
👉Comprehensive 1:1 parent coaching calls
👉Student & clinician mentorship calls

👍Oral Habits Here’s what you need to know:

👍Oral Habits

Here’s what you need to know:

👄 Proper oral rest posture starts in infancy — lips closed, tongue up, breathing through the nose. With pacifiers, soothe & remove, then get that tongue up 💕
🧸 Thumb vs. pacifier — both come with challenges. Neither is “better,” just different challenges when weaning after 12 months.
⏱️Start weaning by 6 months, aim to eliminate by 12 months to support oral and facial development.
🧠 The roof of the mouth is like silly putty — frequent, intense, or long-lasting oral habits can reshape it.
🦷Orthodontic pacifiers may alter baby’s sucking pattern and promote low tongue posture.
👅 We want baby to cup the tongue upward — bulbous or flat pacifiers make this harder.
💋 Oral habits can be tied to emotional and sensory needs
💨 Sometimes oral habits are a symptom of something deeper like an airway restriction

👉Prolonged habits may lead to:
▫️ Low tongue posture
▫️ Open mouth breathing
▫️ Frequent ear infections
▫️ Tongue thrust swallow
▫️ Lisp
▫️ Messy eating
▫️ Bite changes

🫁 Even after stopping the habit, mouth breathing and open-mouth posture often continue without support.

💡Let’s catch these early. Development starts with awareness!

Need support! We are here 🫶

Toot-a-loo Thumb, Bye-Bye Binky Workshop is Monday, June 16th at 10AM at the Body, Birth & Baby Center!

Snoring is never normal—it’s a sign your airwa

Snoring is never normal—it’s a sign your airway is struggling.

Mouth breathing, low tongue posture, and low tone of oral muscles can all contribute to snoring and poor sleep.

Snoring can affect your whole body:

❤️ Heart health
🧠 Cognitive function
🧬 Hormonal balance
🦷 Oral health
🧒 Child development

💤 Myofunctional therapy works to correct these root causes—helping you (or your child, or your partner 😉) breathe better, sleep deeper, and live healthier.

📌 Snoring is a symptom. Let’s get to the root.

GOOD NEWS— We now have virtual myofunctional assessments and appointments available, TODAY 🤍👏🤟

When should we refer a baby for a tongue tie asses

When should we refer a baby for a tongue tie assessment? & Why are providers recommending therapy before and after a release? 👶👅

It’s not just about what the string under our tongue looks like (anatomy) — it’s about how it works (function).
➡️ Function may matter more than what the string looks like.
➡️ Symptoms often speak louder than both.

If baby (or mom) is struggling — with breastfeeding, bottle feeding, weight gain, comfort, or orofacial development — it’s time to take a closer look.

Let’s call it what it really is: a nipple extend

Let’s call it what it really is: a nipple extender!
@victoria.facelli.ibclc said it best👏👏👏

Nipple shields (or extenders🙃) can be helpful tools for:
👉Shallow latches
👉Flat or inverted nipples
👉Transitioning from bottle to breast
👉Premature or sleepy babies who need more structure to latch… & more 🫶

But if you’re adding a nipple shield to your cart to “shield pain”, that’s a sign to reach out to a lactation professional🩵

Pain is never normal, and you don’t have to just “push through it.” If there is nipple pain related to oral motor challenges, tongue tie, inefficient sucking patterns, or even tension in the baby’s mouth or body. A feeding therapist assesses how a baby uses their mouth and helps optimize feeding for comfort and effectiveness- for BOTH baby and parent 🩵

Also! If you’re looking for a FREE breastfeeding support group! They’re every Friday at 9:30 AM 🫶

$I’m always in awe of the love God shows for me—a love I’ve come to understand more deeply through motherhood. The fierce unfailing love I feel for my children is just a glimpse, a tiny fraction, of His endless, unconditional love for me. So deeply thankful this Mother’s Day (and every day)! Happy (early) Mother’s Day to you and yours 🥰 #mothersday #happymothersday #love #mom #mother #motherhood #smallbusiness #family #mothers$
