Fx Therapies We are built on the belief that every human deserves FUNCTIONAL breathing, eating, and communication.

Building skills at home doesn’t have to feel like extra work—it’s already built into your day.

🚗 On the go: Use car rides for simple practice—sound repetition, naming items you see, or working on breathing through the nose with lips closed.

🪥 In your routines: Daily habits like brushing teeth or getting ready for bed are perfect for practicing lip closure, tongue placement, and following simple directions.

🧸 Through play: This is where the magic happens—model language, encourage turn-taking, and build oral-motor skills in a natural, low-pressure way.

Small, consistent moments lead to meaningful, functional growth over time.

Save this as a reminder—you’re already doing more than you think.

Lip closure is the foundation for breathing, feeding, and speech.

Here are 4 simple ways we love to build lip strength and awareness:

~Popsicle stick holds
~Button pulls
~Lip rubs
~Resting face

That “resting face” we’re always working toward:
lips together, jaw slightly hovering, tongue resting on the roof of the mouth, breathing through the nose.

These small, intentional exercises support bigger things—functional breathing, efficient feeding, and clear communication.

Before a tongue tie release, preparation matters 👅✨

We don’t just release—we prepare the tongue to move the way it was designed to.

That means building movement in all directions:
⬆️ Up
↔️ Side to side
➡️ Out
⬅️ Back

Some of our go-to exercises:
• Tongue suctions
• Cheek pushes
• Snake tongue 🐍
• Tongue curls

These help improve strength, coordination, and awareness—setting your child up for the best possible outcome post-release.

Because it’s not just about the release… it’s about FUNCTION 🤍

Tongue placement is everything 👅✨

We’re not just strengthening the tongue—we’re teaching it where it belongs at rest.

The goal?
✔️ Tongue tip resting just behind the two front teeth
✔️ Tongue fully suctioned to the roof of the mouth
✔️ Lips closed + nasal breathing

Some of our favorite ways to practice:
• Tongue clicks
• Suction holds
• Suction “bounce”
• Keeping suction while playing games 🎲

Because true progress happens when these skills carry over into real life moments, not just exercises.

Small habits → big functional changes 🤍
