Back To Your Roots Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy - OMT

Back To Your Roots Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy - OMT My passion is to understand the “root cause” of orofacial concerns. It’s like “Physio” Therapy for the face, mouth, lips and tongue!

I am an airway health advocate that provides therapy for orofacial muscle development, function and tone.

Back-to-school isn't just for kids.

As routines begin to return, many adults also experience:
• increased stress
• poorer sleep
• tighter schedules
• less time outdoors
• not enough time for self-care

Your breathing habits can either support your body—or add to the load.
Taking even a few moments each day to slow down your breathing, breathe through your nose, and become aware of your oral posture can positively influence how you feel.

Sometimes the smallest habits create the biggest changes.

Your tongue has a resting place—and it matters.

When the tongue rests gently against the roof of the mouth, it helps support:
• healthy swallowing
• nasal breathing
• jaw stability
• oral muscle balance

Many adults have never been taught what "ideal" tongue posture actually looks like.

Sometimes improving function begins with going back to the basics.

Breathing affects more than your lungs.

It influences:
• sleep quality
• posture
• facial muscles
• energy levels
• concentration
• nervous system regulation

Because breathing happens automatically, many people never realize inefficient patterns have become their "normal."

What’s important to understand is that normal does not always equal healthy or ideal.

Our goal is to help restore healthier function—one habit at a time.

As the sunny days slowly approach the end of summer ...

Take a moment to check in with yourself.

Are you waking refreshed?

Are you breathing comfortably through your nose?

Do you feel rested, energized, and ready for the day?

If not, your airway and oral function may be worth exploring.

Better breathing isn't just about today—it supports your health for years to come.
Here's to making everyday count!

Testimonial Thursday 💛

"We searched for another provider and stumbled upon Kelly's website. Her whole-body approach to health and wellness really resonated with me.

From our very first contact, Kelly was professional, friendly, and explained everything thoroughly. We always understood what we were doing and why.

We live in BC and were initially worried about working with an OMT virtually, but it wasn't an issue at all.

While we're sad the program is over, it also means she accomplished her goals of helping our son. We are forever grateful for her compassion and ability to connect with him.

Both my son and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly to others."

— Luke S.'s mom (Luke, age 10)

Thank you for trusting us to be part of your family's journey. 💛

Clenching your jaw isn't always just about stress.

Many adults notice:
• jaw tension
• headaches
• neck and shoulder pain
• worn teeth
• TMJ discomfort

While stress certainly plays a role, airway restriction and inefficient breathing can also contribute.

When the body struggles to maintain an open airway, muscles around the jaw and neck often work overtime and begin to compensate.

Looking at the whole picture helps us understand why these symptoms may be happening, how to make changes stick—not just how to manage them.

Every assessment tells a different story.

This week in clinic, we met with an adult who came in because they were tired of waking up exhausted every morning.

They weren't looking for myofunctional therapy—they simply wanted better sleep.
As we talked through their health history, breathing patterns, oral posture, and daily habits, it became clear there were several pieces of the puzzle contributing to how they were feeling.

One of our favourite parts of an assessment is helping people connect the dots.
Sometimes the symptoms you've lived with for years aren't "just the way you are."
They're clues.

Summer is a great time to build healthier habits.

Longer days often mean …. more time outdoors, more movement, and more opportunities to breathe through your nose.

Nasal breathing helps to:
• filter and humidify the air
• improve oxygen delivery
• support better endurance
• encourage a calmer nervous system

Small changes practiced consistently can have a meaningful impact on your overall health.

Healthy breathing is a habit worth taking into every season.

Chronic Mouth Breathing in Adults can affect MORE than just the Mouth.

Over time, it may influence:
• jaw tension
• sleep quality
• energy levels
• nervous system regulation
• overall breathing efficiency
• gum disease / inflammation

Many adults are surprised to learn the consequences of this dysfunction and not aware that changes can be made to live a healthier more vibrant pain-free life!
