Individualized therapy goals
Every patient varies on how many sessions of therapy they will need.
Every two weeks we will meet for therapy. During the therapy sessions, we will go over goals, review previous sessions, and practice your new exercises! During our time together, I will assess how you are doing reaching the goals we have set. Once you have mastered all the goals, we can discuss making these habits part of your everyday life!
Sometimes therapy needs other counterparts to be successful. If your child's adenoids and tonsils are too large, they can be blocking the airway. It's encouraged to get a consultation from a local ENT!
Dust, dander, and dairy are common allergies that can inhibit the nasal passage. Inflammation of the airway can lead to mouth breathing, difficult sleep, and more. If you feel that allergies are affecting your day to day life, contact an allergist for a consultation.
Check with your pediatric dentist to ensure that there are no other symptoms that could be causing issues with breathing, eating, and swallowing.
Facial development in children continues to grow through our teen years. On average, 90% of facial development is completed by age 12. An orthodontist can help expand the palate/floor of the mouth to allow for a better airway!
