Myofunctional Therapy

Supporting oral function, feeding, breathing, and airway health

https://sydneyoralfunction.janeapp.com/

Myofunctional Therapy focuses on the muscles of the mouth, face, and airway-and how they impact feeding, breathing, sleep, and development.

Oral dysfunction can show up early and affect far more than we realize. My role is to help identify and support these patterns with gentle, functional care.

What is Myofunctional Therapy?

Myofunctional Therapy addresses how the tongue, lips, jaw, and facial muscles function at rest and during movement. When these muscles are not working optimally, it can affect feeding, breathing, dental development, sleeping, and overall wellness.

Therapy is individualized, developmentally appropriate, and focused on long-term function.

Myofunctional Therapy May Help With:

* Tongue-Tie (before and after release)

* Limited tongue mobility

* Mouth breathing open-mouth posture

* Low tongue tone or poor oral rest posture

* Feeding challenges in infants and children

* Swallowing patterns

*Bruxism (teeth grinding)

* Airway-focused development

Tongue-Tie & Functional Support

Tongue-Tie is not just an anatomical issue-it's a functional one.

I provide pre-and post-release myofunctional support, helping prepare oral tissues and guide healing ad function afterward. this can improve outcomes and support feeding, breathing, and oral development.

Care may include:

* Oral function assessment

* Personalized exercise

* Parent education

* Collaboration with dental, medical, and bodywork providers

A Gentle, Whole-Body Approach

Myofunctional Therapy is never one-size-fits all. I take a collaboration, trauma-informed approach that considers posture, breathing, feeding, and development as interconnected systems.

Care is:

* Evidence-based

* Gentle and Supportive

* Centered towards all ages

* Focused on sustainable progress
