Myofunctional Therapy is a specialized therapeutic approach that focuses on the muscles of the face, mouth, tongue, and throat to support optimal breathing, swallowing, speech, and overall function. At Schie Health, myofunctional therapy is used to retrain muscle patterns that may contribute to issues such as mouth breathing, tongue thrust, TMJ discomfort, facial tension, sleep-disordered breathing, and postural imbalance.

Through gentle exercises, neuromuscular re-education, and personalized guidance, myofunctional therapy helps restore balance and coordination within the orofacial system. This work supports not only physical function but also nervous system regulation and improved awareness of habitual patterns that affect daily life.

Clients of all ages may benefit from myofunctional therapy, including children, teens, and adults seeking improved airway health, reduced tension, clearer speech patterns, or enhanced facial function. Therapy plans are individualized and may be integrated with speech therapy, physical therapy, craniosacral work, or other wellness services to support whole-body alignment.

Pediatric Speech Therapy at Schie Health supports children in developing clear communication, confident expression, and strong foundational skills for learning and connection. Our licensed speech-language pathologists work with infants, toddlers, children, and adolescents to address speech sound development, language delays, feeding and oral-motor challenges, voice concerns, and social communication skills.

Therapy is individualized, play-based, and developmentally appropriate—meeting each child where they are while gently guiding progress through evidence-based techniques. We recognize that communication is deeply connected to the body, nervous system, and emotional well-being, and we take a holistic approach that considers posture, breathing, oral function, and sensory regulation when appropriate.

Families are an essential part of the therapeutic process. Caregivers receive education, tools, and strategies to support carryover at home, helping children build skills that translate into everyday confidence at school, at home, and in social settings.

Our goal is not only to improve speech and language skills, but to help each child feel heard, understood, and empowered to communicate in their own unique way.

Our licensed speech-language pathologists work with infants, children, and adults experiencing feeding difficulties, swallowing challenges, or discomfort related to oral intake.

Care is individualized and grounded in evidence-based practice, with attention to the oral, pharyngeal, respiratory, and postural systems involved in feeding.

We take a supportive, family-centered approach—recognizing that feeding is both a physical process and an emotional experience. Education and practical strategies are provided to caregivers and clients to promote confidence, safety, and positive mealtime experiences.
