Our 2-day In-person Breathe MYO Workshop

HANDS-ON PRE & POST TONGUE AND LIP-TIE RELEASE MYOFUNCTIONAL THERAPY WORKSHOP

This workshop will include a variety of topics, including up-to-date myofunctional therapy protocols based on our latest research. We are introducing a completely new grading scale that can easily be implemented into your practice. The Breathe MYO Team has worked closely with Dr. Zaghi to identify a more readily implementable method for screening and classifying the following adaptations. Also, for the first time ever, we will be introducing our ‘scoping’ protocols for therapists, and teaching a) what ENTs are looking for and how b) to properly and effectively refer the right patients to ENTs.

  • Implement the latest myofunctional therapy protocols into their practice, as developed by the Breathe MYO Team and Dr. Zaghi.
  • Classify adaptations in patients using the newly developed methods by The Breathe MYO Team.
  • Describe TBI’s ‘scoping’ protocols for therapists to enhance understanding of ENTs' expectations and effective patient referral.
  • Explain the anatomy and function of the nose and techniques for nasal hygiene.
  • Analyze operational reports to recognize critical observations and insights.
  • Perform intra and extra oral stretches, including lip and tongue stretches, for pre and post tongue and lip-tie release myofunctional therapy.
  • Evaluate tongue-ties using an established grading system and tongue-space clinically.
  • Interpret CT scans and their measurements to inform treatment strategies.
  • Address common post-operative patient comments or complaints effectively, improving surgeon-patient confidence and care.
  • Identify compensation patterns in patients pre and post tongue and lip-tie release.
  • Refine referral processes to ENTs, ensuring appropriate and effective patient handovers.
  • PRE & POST Tongue and Lip Tie Release Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy protocols.
  • How to provide Intra and extra oral stretches (Lip stretches, tongue stretches) to patients.
  • How to properly grade tongue-ties.
  • Contraindications for a release in a patient with limited tongue space. Review of our Tongue-Space protocols.
  • To interpret CT scans & the measurements.
  • How to best address post-op patient comments or complaints in a way that saves your surgeon time and energy, and helps them build confidence in your care.
  • How to assess for compensation patterns.
  • How to properly refer to ENTs

Please note that this course is an educational opportunity to illustrate the principles behind the myofunctional therapy pre and post releases that we offer at The Breathe Institute according to our protocols and research. It is not a training program, as that is what is entailed in our Mini-Residency program that is offered to graduates of the Breathe Course.
