Why We Created FOUNDATIONS
The Most Comprehensive Intro Course
Invest in your growth and success today!
As a Myofunctional Therapist, I am thrilled to share with you the story behind the creation of the Foundations of Myofunctional Therapy Course. This journey has been fueled by my passion for empowering and collaborating with dental hygienists and speech-language pathologists who are seeking to enhance their skill set and confidently implement myofunctional therapy.
You see, throughout my career, I have witnessed the transformative power of myofunctional therapy. It has the ability to create positive changes in patients' lives, not just in terms of their oral health but also in their overall well-being. However, I noticed a gap in the industry. Many professionals desired to incorporate myofunctional therapy into their practices, but they lacked the knowledge and support to do so effectively.
That's when I decided to take action and create Foundations of Myofunctional Therapy. My goal was to provide a comprehensive resource that would equip dental hygienists and speech-language pathologists with the confidence and expertise they needed to seamlessly integrate myofunctional therapy into their skill set.
But it wasn't enough for me to simply offer a one-size-fits-all approach. I wanted to cultivate a supportive, uplifting, and collaborative community of professionals who could learn from one another and tailor their myofunctional therapy techniques to meet the unique needs of their patients. This community would be a place where questions could be asked, experiences shared, and success stories celebrated.
With this vision in mind, I poured my expertise and knowledge into creating a program that covers all aspects of myofunctional therapy. From the fundamentals to the practical techniques, every module is designed to empower professionals to provide the highest quality of care to their patients. Through interactive lessons, practical exercises, and ongoing support, I aim to ensure that every participant feels confident and equipped to make a meaningful difference in their patients' lives.
The journey of creating the Foundations of Myofunctional Therapy has been one of dedication, passion, and collaboration. I am incredibly proud of what we have built, and I am honored to see the positive impact it is making in the lives of professionals and their patients.
If you, like me, believe in the power of myofunctional therapy and are ready to take your career to new heights, I invite you to join our community. Together, we can elevate the standard of care in our industry and create a world where every patient can experience the life-changing benefits of myofunctional therapy.

My biggest take away was how to do a full assessment.
Learning the importance of photos and videos, and what to be looking for in them. I had no idea how valuable they were. I enjoyed all the new exercises, but will need to go back and review a lot of them for their purpose.
