What is Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy?

There are 3 major types of Sleep Apnea.  

1)Obstructive Sleep Apnea is the most common form. This happens when your tongue blocks your airway.

2) Snoring is a noisy breathing sound made when tissues vibrate in your airway, whether it's through your mouth or nose.

3) Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS)

When you mouth breathe, you are chest breathing, instead of diaphragmatic breathing, which allows for a better exchange of oxygen as well as many more benefits.

Many people are unaware they even have a tongue thrust.  It is an improper way of swallowing. Your tongue is pushing on your front teeth instead of the roof of your mouth. This can lead to an open bite and improper function of your muscles.

There are many things that can trigger headaches, but mostly it is muscle tension and muscle imbalance that cause this.
