  • Orofacial Myofunctional therapy is a neuromuscular re-education program that helps restore proper function to the muscles of the face, tongue, and airway. It supports healthy breathing, posture, chewing, swallowing, speech, and sleep. At OroGlow, we go beyond the basics to address the root causes of dysfunction and empower long lasting change. 

  • We provide specialized therapy for myofunctional disorders, feeding difficulties, swallowing problems (dysphagia), voice disorders, cognitive-communication challenges, and support for individuals with tracheostomies (PMV).

  • We’re not just about exercises–we’re about transformation. Our approach is: 

    • Holistic and root-cause focused

    • Personalized and comprehensive

    • Collaborative, working closely with dentists, ENTs, orthodontists, and bodyworkers.

    • Supportive–you’re never just a number here. We walk this path with you.
