   Let’s Talk Myofunctional Therapy with Renata Nehme, COM

   What exactly is myofunctional therapy, and what can the tongue, breathing, swallowing, and oral function tell us about the bigger picture? In this episode of The Visceral Voice Podcast, Christine Schneider sits down with Renata Nehme, COM, for a conversation exploring the world of orofacial myofunctional therapy. Renata walks us through what a myofunctional therapist looks at, how she approaches oral function, and why what we see the tongue doing may not always begin with the tongue itself. They discuss tongue thrust, the maxillary bones, breathing, sleep, swallowing, oral rest posture, and the relationships between structure and function. The conversation also explores where myofunctional therapy may intersect with dentistry, speech and voice, bodywork, and other disciplines, and why collaboration can be so valuable when we’re looking at a system as interconnected as the mouth, airway, and body. Whether you’re a singer, voice teacher, SLP, dentist, bodyworker, movement professional, or simply curious about myofunctional therapy, this episode offers another lens through which to explore the body behind the voice. This conversation is intended for educational purposes and is not a substitute for individualized medical, dental, or therapeutic care.

And I'm like, I don't know how someone wouldn't be experiencing vocal fatigue when you're using the voice as much and under certain amounts of load that we haven't helped that person experience. get up to before going into that show or something like that.
