CAN BREATHING TECHNIQUES REALLY IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH?
Most of us just consider it to be a good day if we are breathing!
Can I get an amen?
And most of us don’t think about our breathing techniques until we either discover that there’s a problem, or perhaps you fall into the rabbit hole of something like myofunctional therapy or Buteyko breathing. The problem is, sometimes it’s too late to begin trying to breathe correctly after the damage has been done.
The goal of improving my breathing techniques has been a personal journey for me as well. Many of you already know that I used to be the world’s biggest mouth breather. I took 4 allergy pills every day and couldn’t leave home without a box of Kleenex. I was honestly miserable most of the time. My nose hurt, my lips were dry, and the mouth breathing had already left a permanent mark on the development of my face and jaw.
In this video, I talk about healthy breathing techniques and what changes you can make today to improve your breathing health and overall wellness.
Remember, I’m here if you have questions! You can also schedule a complimentary mini assessment with me so we can talk about your concerns and see if myofunctional therapy would benefit you.

I found this path of passion years ago as a dental hygienist. After a stint in graduate school to earn my M.B.A., I decided that I needed to pivot. My heart was no longer in scraping teeth, but making a much bigger impact on lives touched by myofunctional impairment.
My story is personal and close to home. My sweet granddaughter was passed back and forth amongst doctors and therapists for years trying to figure out her speech, breathing, sleep, chewing and swallowing issues. It wasn’t until I completed more training that I knew her problem was a significant tongue-tie. Bingo.
Fast forward to now. I’m a crusader. A warrior. A voice for those who can’t find theirs, or who don’t have one.
I left clinical hygiene practice to start Integrative Myofunctional Therapy. It has evolved from a way to make a living, into an obsession!
I see clients all over the world and provide innovative, virtual therapy in the remotest of places.
In addition, I also
- Teach other dental hygienists, speech therapists & dentists how to become myofunctional therapists through the Myofunctional Therapy Training Academy, the Myo Mastery Program, Ignition Implementation Lab, and Triumph Business Training For Myofunctional Professionals
- Coach dental offices on how to implement myofunctional screening into the daily practice
- Speak in various settings
