Snoring & Sleep Apnea
Breathe Easier. Sleep Better. Live Healthier.
Snoring and sleep apnea are often signs of airway and muscle dysfunction that can impact your health and energy. At MyoLink, we use targeted myofunctional therapy to strengthen oral and facial muscles, improve breathing patterns, and promote deeper, more restorative sleep for children and adults.
What Is Snoring & Sleep APnea?
Snoring occurs when airflow is partially blocked during sleep, causing vibrations in the throat. While common, it can signal underlying airway or muscle issues. Sleep apnea is a more serious condition in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, reducing oxygen levels and affecting overall health. Both can lead to daytime fatigue, poor focus, and long-term health concerns. Myofunctional therapy helps strengthen and retrain the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and airway to support proper breathing and more restful sleep.
Who Can Benefit from Therapy?
Our therapy helps children and adults improve breathing, reduce snoring, and support healthier sleep. By addressing the root causes of airway and muscle dysfunction, we help clients experience deeper rest and better overall wellness.
Adults: Experiencing snoring, poor sleep quality, or daytime fatigue.
Teens: With mouth breathing or airway-related sleep disturbances.
Children: Struggling with restless sleep, behavioral changes, or open-mouth posture.
Sleep Apnea Patients: Seeking supportive therapy alongside medical treatment for improved outcomes.
