What can OMT do for my child?
01
Enhanced Speech and Dental Health
OMT improves speech clarity and articulation by addressing improper tongue positions, while also promoting proper jaw alignment and reducing the need for future orthodontic treatments.
02
Better Nutricional Intake and Digestion
Corrects swallowing patterns and eliminates harmful oral habits, facilitating better chewing and eating habits, which can improve overall nutritional intake and digestion.
03
Improved breathing and Sleep Quality
By encouraging nasal breathing over mouth breathing, OMT enhances oxygen exchange, respiratory health, and sleep quality, potentially mitigating sleep-disordered breathing conditions like sleep apnea.
04
Optimal Facial Growth & Development
Supports the natural development of facial muscles and structures, contributing to balanced facial aesthetics and preventing malocclusions and TMJD.
05
sELF-eSTEEM AND eMOTIONAL

The combined physical improvements in speech, dental health, and facial symmetry contribute significantly to build confidence, social interactions, and emotional health
