Breathing & Sleep

Breathing & Sleep

We support healthier breathing patterns and deeper sleep by treating the muscles and habits that affect the airway. Our approach includes:

  • Myofunctional therapy to improve tongue posture, nasal breathing, and airway tone
  • Manual therapy and red light therapy to reduce tension and support healing
  • Functional exercises and habit retraining to address snoring, fatigue, and sleep-disordered breathing

Orofacial Myofunctional Evaluation and Therapy

We train the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and face to improve nasal breathing, reduce snoring or TMJ pain, and support better sleep, posture, and focus.

Ideal for: mouth breathing, sleep-disordered breathing, tongue thrust, TMJ issues, pre/post tongue-tie support

Sleep and Airway Optimization

We work with clients to improve nighttime breathing through functional exercises that support nasal breathing and reduce disordered sleep patterns.

Ideal for: snoring, fatigue, poor sleep, mouth breathing, sleep apnea, and Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome

Frequently Asked Questions

If your child regularly breathes through their mouth, snores, grinds their teeth, wakes frequently, or seems tired during the day, it could be a sign of an airway or oral function issue that therapy can help address.

Yes! Myofunctional therapy strengthens and retrains the muscles used for breathing, helping support nasal breathing and reduce symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing, snoring, and even mild sleep apnea.

We work with children as young as toddlers through adulthood. The earlier we can identify and correct breathing patterns, the better – but therapy is effective at all ages.

I’m so thankful my daughter was referred to Ashleigh for evaluation. She did a very thorough exam and identified issues no one else had previously, which was key to determine our next steps for treatment/therapy. She also recommended other additional specialties that could help in our situation, one of which we are currently pursuing and has been so helpful for my daughter. Ashleigh was amazing with my 6 year old, explained everything she was doing with her and made the therapy session enjoyable. My daughter looked forward to seeing her. I would highly recommend Ashleigh!
