May is Mouth Breathing Awareness Month!
That means over the next month, I'll posting on social media trying to spread the word, and I've asked my amazing MyoMentor Graduates to help me out.
MyoMentor students and graduates are some of the most passionate dental and healthcare professionals I know, and many of them have struggled with their own myofunctional symptoms - mouth breathing, tongue-tie, sleep disordered breathing, and more.
So I'll be interviewing THEM to share their stories and highlight what they are doing in their practices and communities to help their patients.
Today I interviewed Tamara Lindley, a hygienist and myofunctional therapist from San Diego California. She shared the story about discovering she was tongue tied and mouth breathing as an adult, and how it led her to become a myofunctional therapist!
I love Tamara's story because she makes all of the puzzle pieces fit together so well for people - the way she describes everything is straightforward and easy to understand.
Prior to her tongue tie release and myofunctional therapy, Tamara had a headache to some degree every single day - she jus thought that was her "normal". Now she gets fewer than one headache per month and knows what normal really means.
I love Tamara's approach to treating her patients. She is such an amazing resource for families in San Diego! Please find her and reach out. Tamara's practice is called Facial Physique and she sees her patients online via tele-health.
