Our Mission

At MyoMotion Therapy, our mission is to enhance the overall health and quality of life of our clients through personalized myofunctional therapy.

With over 20 years of experience in oral health, we understand the profound impact that proper oral function can have on the entire body. We are dedicated to providing individualized exercise programs designed to improve breathing, swallowing, and tongue position, supporting long-term airway health and whole-body wellness.

What Is Myofunctional Therapy?

Myofunctional Therapy is a non-invasive, exercise-based approach that retrains the muscles involved in breathing, swallowing, speaking, and resting oral posture.

When these muscles are not functioning properly, it can contribute to:

  • Mouth breathing

  • Snoring

  • Sleep-disordered breathing and obstructive sleep apnea

  • Tongue thrust

  • Bruxism (teeth grinding or clenching)

  • Orthodontic relapse

  • Jaw and airway development concerns

Myofunctional Therapy helps restore balance and function, supporting healthier breathing patterns and improved sleep.

A Personalized, Patient-Centered Approach

Every patient begins with a comprehensive evaluation of oral posture, breathing patterns, and muscle function. Based on this assessment, Sherry designs a customized therapy program, which may include:

  • Targeted facial and tongue exercises

  • Nasal breathing retraining

  • Swallowing pattern correction

  • Tongue posture optimization

  • Habit awareness and coaching

Therapy is progressive, guided, and designed to fit seamlessly into daily life — with the goal of creating lasting, sustainable results.

Who Can Benefit from Myofunctional Therapy?

Myofunctional Therapy may benefit individuals who experience:

  • Mouth breathing or chronic nasal congestion

  • Snoring or disrupted sleep

  • Obstructive sleep apnea (as part of a comprehensive care plan)

  • Teeth grinding or clenching

  • Improper swallowing patterns

  • Orthodontic relapse

  • Speech-related oral muscle dysfunction

Both children and adults can benefit from this airway-focused approach.

Committed to Excellence & Continuing Education

We strive to remain at the forefront of airway health through:

  • Continuous professional education

  • Active participation in a nationwide airway health study club

  • Collaboration with airway-focused providers

This commitment ensures our patients receive care informed by the latest research and best practices in myofunctional therapy.

Our Vision

Our long-term goal is to reach as many individuals as possible, helping them achieve:

  • Improved airway health

  • Better oral function

  • Enhanced sleep quality

  • A healthier, more energized life

By addressing the root causes of dysfunction, MyoMotion Therapy supports long-term wellness — not just symptom relief.
