What to Expect from Myofunctional Therapy

Our Myo team is trained by nationally recognized experts in myofunctional and PROMPT therapy. We focus on helping kids build healthy muscle patterns for clearer speech, easier breathing, and confident eating.

Each plan is personalized for your child’s age, sensory profile, and developmental needs. Sessions may include:

  • Hands-on muscle and movement work

  • Chewing and feeding integration

  • Speech and breathing coordination

When needed, we collaborate with trusted ENTs, orthodontists, sleep specialists, and occupational therapists to ensure every part of your child’s oral function is supported.

Tongue and Lip Tie Support

We provide specialized pre- and post-operative therapy for children undergoing tongue or lip tie releases.

Before surgery, therapy helps your child’s mouth muscles build awareness and coordination so they’re ready for new movement patterns. After surgery, we guide the muscles in how to move and work together, through feeding and myofunctional therapy, to ensure the new range of motion supports confident eating, breathing, and speaking.

This pre- and post-care is an important part of treatment and helps your child achieve lasting results.
