Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy

The Air Excellence team provides Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy and Buteyko Breathing geared toward improving how people of all ages breathe, eat, sleep and more.

Through Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT), we can help improve the use of your facial and oral muscles to improve quality of life. By starting these therapies at an early age, you can prevent poor habits or more quickly improve the function of your lips, teeth, tongue and jaw. However, at any phase of life, OMT can provide relief and help you breathe, eat, swallow and live better.

The primary goals of OMT include:

Improved rest and muscle position: improve how your lips, teeth, tongue and jaw work together, at rest and when in use.
Retrain muscles: strengthen and retrain the muscles of your face, lips, tongue and jaw for improved function whether you’re at rest or awake.
Improve oral habits: transform bad habits into behaviors that promote healthier use of your lips, teeth, tongue and jaw.
Enhanced functionality: learn how to improve how you use your jaw, tongue and lips for less pain, greater movement, safer eating and more.

Consider OMT if you experience any of the following:

Jaw or Facial Pain
Mouth Breathing
Sleep Apnea
Speech Problems
Tongue Thrust
Tongue or Lip Tie
Facial Growth/Appearance

Pediatric OMT can help children of all ages. The Air Excellence team can help children:

Correct tongue thrust or incorrect tongue placement when speaking.
Correct poor habits such as thumb sucking or mouth breathing, which can impact the alignment of their teeth.
Strengthen nasal breathing to optimize oxygen intake.
Improve swallowing to minimize eating challenges.

I have been working with my physician for 2 years taking different medications for my high blood pressure and you are not going to believe this but I went in last week and it was 116/80. This is the first time my blood pressure has been normal since high school! (pt is 67 years old)

Testimonials

What clients are saying

I used to have daily shoulder and neck pain and that is completely gone. I always blamed it on my shoulder I had 4 surgeries on. I haven’t been getting any headaches like I used to. I can breathe great out of my nose for once and have been sleeping like a baby and feel well rested in the mornings. I highly doubt It’s a coincidence because those were all things I have delt with daily for the past 10 years at least. (Pt is 30 years old)

W.S.

I took my son to Air Excellence OMT with symptoms including; snoring, breathing through his mouth, neck pain, a tongue tie, mouth drooling a lot at night, catching colds easily and restless sleep- waking a lot during the night and he would get up an hour before anyone else in the house was up and was consequently tired a lot during school. Since having Myofunctional Therapy with Julie at Air Excellence OMT he no longer snores, no longer has neck pain, sleeps with his mouth closed, is sleeping well all night and doesn’t get up before everyone else any more. He is a happier child and finds it easier to focus and do well at school. He was on the all A’s honor roll this year! (Pt is 11 years old)
