- Comprehensive Program
Designed as a foundational program to achieve the four goals of OMT: nasal breathing, proper tongue posture, lip seal and proper swallowing pattern. The foundational program is composed of three phases to complete therapy: intensive phase, habituation phase and retention phase.
- Pre and Post Frenectomy Exercises
Preparation is necessary for a frenectomy including exercises post frenectomy to prevent reattachment of the tissue. A complete foundational session is recommended to retrain the tongue.

- Professional Buteyko Breathing Coaching
Re-educate your breathing to support lifelong health & wellbeing! People are often told to take deep, full, big breaths in the belief that this will increase oxygen delivery to the tissues. If we look at the science, it doesn’t work that way. If you take big breaths that increase the volume of air beyond what it should be, you get rid of too much carbon dioxide. By practicing the Buteyko breathing technique and developing subtle, soft, slow, light breathing while also maintaining diaphragmatic, nasal breathing, you’re increasing oxygen delivery to the cells.
