WHAT IS OROFACIAL MYOFUNCTIONAL THERAPY?
(OR OMT FOR SHORT)

OMT is the neuromuscular re-education of the facial muscles.

 

In simple terms, OMT is a home gym for the face. It includes a series of customized exercises that enhance natural form and function for both children and adults.

​

If you or a loved one has suffered from:

TMJ DISCOMFORT

you may be suffering from OMDs. 

​

OROFACIAL MYOFUNCTIONAL DISORDERS (OMDs) IMPACT THE FUNCTION OF THE MOUTH, JAW, LIPS, AND TONGUE. ALTERING BREATHING, CHEWING, SWALLOWING, SPEECH AND BITE RELATIONSHIPS. OFTEN CAUSING TENSION AND PAIN IN THE MUSCLES ASSOCIATED WITH THESE DYSFUNCTIONAL HABITS AND ACTIONS.
