Ages 2-5: In order to do "therapy" the client needs to be able to be participating patient. This is tough at this age group generally. I do however offer a Mini Myo program. Depending on the child, this may be 1-3 sessions and includes a MyoMunchee. If you aren't familiar with a MyoMunchee, please watch video below.
Ages 5 and above: Myofunctional Therapy will range from 10 -15 sessions. Therapy is 5 minutes worth of exercises twice a day with an online therapy session every 2 weeks.
Myofunctional Therapy is considered an emerging field to an insurance company. Most insurance companies will deny Myofunctional Codes. Payment increases when we have a signed letter from a Doctor stating the need for Myofunctional Therapy before treatment begins. I can assist in providing that letter to your preferred provider. Once therapy is done, I can supply a superbill for you to submit to your insurance with the signed letter and that increases the odds of them covering therapy.
A Munchee is part of all therapy kits. I use it to highlight dysfunction. It is a beautiful way to compliment therapy as it helps with all 4 goals: tongue placement, proper swallow, nasal breathing and lip closure.
