Tongue-Tie and Tethered Oral Tissues
The mountains provide us with fresh clean air which Mother Nature intended for us to breathe through our nose. A restricted tongue (tongue-tie) prevents proper breathing. Breathing correctly through our nose supports overall health, reduces risk of illness, and improves mood and sleep quality.
As an expert in tongue and lip tie releases (frenectomies), we collaborate with myofunctional and craniosacral therapists, as well as other skilled healthcare professionals to provide individuals with proper swallowing, breathing, and overall health for a longer healthier life.
Tongue tie and tethered oral tissues also affect infants and breastfeeding.
