Today Isabela shares about her experiences as a virtual Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) patient. Link in biošŸ‘†

Isabela is a high school student who suffered from constant and severe jaw pain, severe jaw tension, limited jaw range of motion, jaw popping and jaw locking. Her symptoms were so severe that she consumed primarily purees and liquids, as chewy, dense, and hard foods caused her symptoms to flare.

After 7 short weeks of virtual Myofunctional Therapy, Isabela’s symptoms have dramatically improved! Isabela no longer experiences jaw pain, jaw popping or jaw locking. She’s even back to eating the dense and crunchy foods she once enjoyed! Isabela’s success is the result of her deep commitment to home programming and changing some habits that were reinforcing her symptoms.

My greatest privilege is empowering patients with tools and strategies to facilitate their own healingšŸ™

Exciting news! Last week I had the privilege of sitting down with Dr. Bob Perkins of the TMJ and More Podcast to discuss everything related to dental and facial development and Myofunctional Therapy. Link in bio✨

Bob specializes in TMJ, chronic pain management and orthotropics. Bob has seen, first hand, the benefits OMT provides for patients with TMJ, low tongue posture, and chronic mouth breathing habits. He’s also seen the ways healthy tongue and swallowing postures can profoundly change a child’s teeth and face!

Bob and I discuss everything from ancient breathing principles to suck pouches, sippy cups, baby led weaning and posture.

ā€œIf every child was screened for a myofunctional disorder early in life, we would live in a far healthier world.ā€

Today Elise shares about her and her son’s experiences as Myofuncitonal Therapy patients. Link in bio😊

Elise started therapy with a variety of TMJ symptoms including jaw pain, limited jaw range of motion, jaw clicking, jaw popping, and low tongue posture. After one month of therapy, Elise noticed a major shift in her symptoms. After two months of therapy, Elise no longer experiences any of her TMJ symptoms!

Elise's son, Darwin, started therapy with different concerns including habitual mouth breathing, teeth grinding, jaw clenching, poor quality sleep and low tongue posture. After two months of therapy, Darwin exclusively nasal breathes, has healthy tongue posture, no longer clenches or grinds his teeth, and experiences much better quality sleep! Mom has seen positive changes in his behavior too!

HOW we eat, breathe, and swallow is just as important as WHAT we eat, breathe, and swallow. Check out Elise’s story (link in bio) to learn more!

Happy New Year patients, colleagues, families and friends✨ I’ve taken a much needed break from social media over the past 3 months and am coming back with some strategies and intention for greater balance. It’s a journey for sureā˜ŗļø

To kick off 2021, I wanted to share one of my favorite read from the past year. It’s called ā€œSimplicity Parenting: Using the Extraordinary Power of Less to Raise Calm, Happier and More Secure Kidsā€ by Kim John Payne. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this beautiful book. Reading it has been like a trip to Big Sur after months of quarantinešŸŒ…

Kim has a background as a social worker, Waldorf educator and therapist. He does a beautiful job explaining the ways that minimizing clutter, establishing routines and schedules, ā€œscheduling breaksā€ in our busy schedules and developing a greater sense of mindful presence create the context for our children to blossom (and in my opinion, for our own adult souls to blossom too). His insights are practical, positive and extremely accessible.

Happy New Year friends! May it be one of a slowed pace with attention and time set towards the things and people who bring you life and vitality🌻

Everyone wants more intricate oxide, especially during a viral pandemic!

Nitric oxide (NO) is released in the nasal airways in humans during inspiration through the nose. NO activates ciliary movement and mucus secretion, which can increase removal of dust and viral particles from the respiratory tract.

In humans, higher nasal levels of exhaled NO are associated with fewer symptoms of the common cold, suggesting that nasally produced NO represents one of the body’s endogenous defense mechanisms against viruses in the airway... yet another reason why establishing functional nasal breathing is of vital importance!

I’m honored to work with wonderful parents and caregivers who are ready to support their kiddos with lots of love and encouragement. Often times, the key to eliminating the habit is just adding a few tweaks and tricks to a parent’s toolbox!šŸ›
