Therapy can start as early as 4 year of age. Child should be able to attend and follow directions/imitate oral movements. Oral imitation and control is addressed and will improve with therapy as well. Therapy for younger children will differ somewhat from therapy with older children and adults. That is the reason we offer two distinct programs based on ages and readiness, TickTalk Myo and TickTalk Mini-Myo. Contact us to discuss the best option for your child and to schedule an evaluation with an Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist.
