MyoFunctional Therapy of St. Croix Valley

I’ve spent more than 30 years in dentistry, and I’m also someone who has a tongue-tie myself. I had speech therapy as a child and orthodontic treatment twice, so I understand these challenges from the patient’s side of the chair, too. As a mom of four sons, I’ve also seen firsthand how breathing and sleep can affect a child. That experience shapes how I look at every patient: not just the symptom, but what might be contributing to it. I work with children and adults to improve nasal breathing, lip seal, tongue posture, swallowing, and chewing. I also work collaboratively with dentists, orthodontists, ENTs, and sleep providers, because myofunctional therapy is one important piece of the picture. My training includes Myo Mentor, The Breathe Institute, and Airway Circle. I’m a Certified Buteyko Breathing Instructor, Myo Munchee and Froggy Mouth Practitioner. I’d be happy to talk with you about what’s going on.
