Event Information

Course Description

This course aims to explore the intersection of myofunctional therapy and speech therapy, highlighting the synergies between these two disciplines and their potential to enhance treatment outcomes. Participants will gain insight into identifying myofunctional disorders, understanding the role of orofacial muscles in speech production, and recognizing the impact of myofunctional disorders on speech and language development. Additionally, they will learn specific myofunctional therapy techniques to improve oral strength and coordination, thus increasing traditional speech therapy success. We will focus primarily on producing/r/, /l/ and /s/ sounds. Through case studies, attendees will acquire practical strategies for integrating myofunctional therapy techniques into speech therapy interventions, fostering a more holistic approach to assessment and treatment.

Learning Outcomes

Participants will be able to:

Identify the main facial muscles needed for speaking
Identify typical signs of an Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder (OMD) related to speech difficulties
Assess the muscle strength and coordination of the tongue, lips and jaw for /r/, /l/, and /s/
Apply specific myofunctional exercises to improve tongue resting posture and movement for /r/, /l/ and /s/
List short drilling activities versus playing game in group sessions

Great course! So many practical techniques

These classes have been amazing! Thank you!

Enjoyed this course! Love seeing the videos and examples of activities to carryover the skills

This was one of the best workshops I've been to in awhile-she gave actual strategies on how to work with these types of disorders.

Informative and helpful webinar

Thank you very much for this program, this was very helpful!

Great course with applicable therapy techniques!

This course really helped me tie OMDs to articulation problems. It gave great ideas for goal writing to treat the root cause not just the symptoms of the speech errors.

I love the variety and affordability of courses offered.

Great information

Great webinar! I am definitely utilizing this in my practice!

Good reinforcement for my public school based practice

Wonderful course

Loved this course! never learned about any of this in grad school.

Very helpful course, especially with the use of case studies!

This is my first time taking a TalkTools course. Following the directions for signing and accessing course materials was easy and simple.

This was a great course.

The Talk was very informative

Fantastic course

Very informative

Amazing course!!!

This was a great introductory class to this area in our field. I was able to learn so much about the muscles of the tongue and how it affects sounds.

Great conference/talk

I really appreciated learning about incorporation between myofunctional therapy and speech sounds.

This was a great course and I will be introducing it to my therapists in my practice.

Great prestation-I learned a lot!

I wish I had known the specific oral motor skills necessary to produce the trickiest sounds (/s/, /l/, /r/) in my last 12 years of practice. The information shared in this webinar will help me graduate artic kids so much faster!

This course was so helpful in showing the necessity of structure for function, and how stability leads to mobility. Lots of great strategies to take back to my own clients!

tis very useful workshop

Great training!
