Academy of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy
This is a story that must be told and a therapeutic practice that must be made available to our entire population. It dramatically alters people’s lives. I have been practicing for 30 years and have seen remarkable transformations in the health of my patients. I began because my son had the problem and I saw his ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) issues, headaches, and TMJ (jaw) pain stop. I was a dental hygienist and I decided to learn and study everything I could in the field. I have seen so many patients having surgery after surgery, taking many medications, and generally receiving unsatisfactory health care and suffering immensely.
I now practice in Pacific Palisades, California and in Beverly Hills, California and I am one of the few who teach courses in the treatment of this disorder. I will do anything to get this valuable treatment option out to the public because I have seen unbelievable changes occur in the health of my patients and millions could be helped.
Orofacial myofunctional therapy has been known by the scientific community since the early 1900’s. Currently, this emerging therapeutic treatment has become professionalized with a training program available to speech pathologists, dental hygienists, dentists and physicians. Unfortunately, however, most people and even physicians or dentists, are unaware that this life-enhancing therapy even exists.
