When I had my children, after weight gain struggles, it was found they were tongue tied. We were connected with providers at the time and I believed the ties wouldn't affect them going forward.Fast forward several years, I noticed a couple children struggled with certain letter sounds and it seemed “their tongue was too big for their mouth” when eating. After a ‘rabbit hole’ on social media I learned about myofunctional therapy and sought a local expert.I got connected with Jessica and I learned so much. With four tongue tied children, each functioned differently, and had different ‘needs’. She connected me with professionals to support our goals and we revised plans to meet individual needs. We did group therapy sessions with the kids, but yet care and exercises were personalized for their needs.Even for myself, being tongue tied, I was finally able to find relief from long standing headaches and neck tension.We now have the knowledge and introspection to check in with our symptoms, and a toolbox of exercises to manage those symptoms.I’m grateful to Jess for her resources, knowledge, expertise and patience as she guided each of our care.
