MFT uses targeted exercises to treat disorders such as nasal obstruction and sleep-disordered breathing, swallowing disorders, chewing difficulties, speech issues, jaw pain, dental problems, craniofacial growth concerns, picky eating and more.

Oral Motor Therapy

Feeding and oral motor therapy is very similar to myofunctional therapy but designed for babies and toddlers to get to functional feeding. This treatment is used to assist with mobility, strength and coordination of the tongue, lips, palate, and jaw as well as integration of feeding reflexes. OMT can assist with breastfeeding or bottle feeding difficulties, swallowing disorders, weak muscles of the mouth and face, work to reduce gagging, and more.

Feldenkrais Method® Integration

The Feldenkrais Method is a somatic education technique that uses gentle movement and verbal and hands-on guidance to help people improve their awareness of their bodies and develop new ways of moving. Feldenkrais assists individuals to develop new movement patterns that over-ride engrained motor habits. It is based on principles of physics, biomechanics, and an empirical understanding of learning and human development. Improve your mobility, reduce pain, and enhance your overall physical function with Feldenkrais therapy.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, noninvasive treatment that uses touch to improve the function of the body’s cranial system. CST involves light pressure to release tension in the fascia or the body's connective tissue network. This can help restore balance to the nervous system and improve the movement of cerebrospinal fluid. Release tension and relieve pain with craniosacral therapy, which helps support the body’s natural healing processes.
