What is Myofunctional Therapy?

If you’ve been searching for answers about your child’s sleep, speech, feeding, or breathing challenges—and keep hitting dead ends—you’re not alone. Myofunctional therapy is often the missing link.

It’s a gentle, exercise-based approach that helps your child retrain the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and face to work the way they were meant to.

These muscles play a huge role in how your child breathes, swallows, speaks, and even how their face and jaw develop.

By correcting harmful habits like mouth breathing, low tongue posture, or improper swallowing, we’re not just improving symptoms—we’re creating real, lasting change that supports your child’s overall health and development.

Why It Matters

These issues don’t just go away with time. They often grow into bigger concerns if left untreated—like chronic sleep problems, dental issues, speech delays, or even behavioral struggles. That’s why early support matters.

Myofunctional therapy empowers parents with the tools to help their child build healthier habits, one step at a time—so they can breathe easier, sleep deeper, and thrive.

At Nurture Myo Wellness, we make myofuncional Therapy fun and achievable for both kids and their caregivers!

The 4 Core Goals of Myofunctional Therapy:

1. Nasal Breathing

Helping your child breathe through their nose—day and night—for better sleep, focus, and immunity.

2. Proper Tongue Posture

Teaching the tongue to rest on the roof of the mouth to support facial growth, speech, and airway health.

3. Lip Seal

Encouraging lips to stay closed at rest to improve breathing patterns and reduce mouth breathing.

4. Correct Swallowing

Training a healthy swallow that supports digestion, speech, and proper tongue function.

By focusing on these four key goals, myofunctional therapy helps your child build lifelong habits that support better breathing, sleep, speech, and overall well-being.

Conditions Myofunctional Theraphy Can Help with:

Snoring

Snoring isn’t just a nighttime nuisance—it can be a sign that your child is struggling to breathe properly during sleep. Myofunctional therapy helps open the airway by strengthening oral and facial muscles, reducing or even eliminating snoring over time.

Sleep-Disordered Breathing

Frequent waking, restless sleep, or mouth breathing through the night can all point to sleep-disordered breathing. Our therapy supports better muscle tone and oral posture to promote healthier, more efficient breathing—day and night.

Mouth Breathing & Nasal Breathing Difficulties

We help kids transition from chronic mouth breathing to nasal breathing, which improves oxygen flow, boosts immunity, and supports healthy facial development.

Tongue-Tie, Tongue Thrust & Swallowing Issues

Struggles with swallowing, tongue thrusting, or drooling often tie back to poor oral muscle function or restricted tongue movement. Therapy retrains those patterns to support feeding, digestion, and speech.

At Nurture Myo Wellness, we make these milestones fun and achievable for both kids and their caregivers!

Speech Delays & Articulation Difficulties

If your child has trouble forming words clearly, weak oral muscles may be part of the problem. We focus on building strength, awareness, and coordination to support clearer speech.

Orthodontic Issues & Facial Growth

Oral habits like thumb sucking, open-mouth posture, and tongue thrust can affect jaw alignment and tooth spacing. Myofunctional therapy helps correct these habits to support long-term orthodontic success.

Jaw Pain, Clenching & TMJ Tension

Even little ones can experience jaw strain or clenching. Our exercises promote balanced muscle function to relieve tension and support healthy jaw movement.

If your child is showing signs of these issues, you’re not alone—and there is help. Myofunctional therapy offers a gentle, effective way to support their growth, health, and happiness from the inside out.
