Myofunctional Therapy for Children in Everett, WA

If your child breathes through their mouth, snores, struggles with thumb or finger sucking, has tongue thrust, chews with their mouth open, or is preparing for orthodontic treatment, myofunctional therapy may help address the habits and muscle patterns behind these concerns.

 

At SoundFlow Myofunctional Wellness in Everett, we create child-friendly therapy plans for infants and children from 6 months to 12 years old.

​

These therapy plans are specifically designed to engage, encourage and appeal to children. We have developed our own training materials and myo kits that will make your child's Myofunctional Therapy journey fun and rewarding creating long lasting good habits and behaviors.
