Myofunctional therapy is a personalized approach that retrains the muscles and patterns of the mouth, tongue, lips, cheeks, jaw, and airway. It looks at how you breathe, rest your tongue, swallow, chew, and use oral-facial muscles in daily life.
Do you work with adults and children?
Yes. The Breathing Room supports both adults and children. Adult care often focuses on mouth breathing, sleep quality, jaw tension, clenching, tongue posture, and oral function. Child-focused care often includes mouth breathing, oral habits, tongue posture, tongue thrust, sleep concerns, and developmental airway patterns.
Is virtual myofunctional therapy available?
Yes. The Breathing Room offers virtual sessions nationwide when appropriate, as well as in-person care in Germantown, Maryland.
How do I know whether I need private therapy or RESET?
The assessment is the best place to receive a personalized recommendation. RESET is a helpful at-home starting point for people who want guided practices but are not ready for private therapy.
Do you diagnose sleep apnea?
No. The Breathing Room does not diagnose sleep apnea or medical sleep disorders. We support oral function, breathing patterns, and airway-related habits, and we collaborate with appropriate medical and dental providers when needed.
