Addressing Root Cause & Effective Solutions

Do you or your child(ren) have chronic symptoms, prolonged sickness, sleep or behavioral issues?

Chronic mouth breathing is one of the biggest contributors and root cause to so many health issues, prolonged sickness, sleep disorders and behavioral issues!  Sadly, this major root cause is commonly overlooked by many Practitioners.   

Did you know many of these issues can significantly improve and/or resolve just by breaking this destructive health habits and learning the fundamental habits that are necessary for a resilient immune system, optimal health, well-being and vitality? 

​

Chronic mouth breathing has become very prevalent and is commonly overlooked......so many children and adults are getting misdiagnosed leading to unnecessary procedures and being medicated. Chronic mouth breathing is harmful and important to correct as soon as possible. Up to 40% of 4 -to-10 year olds have sleep problems, 2 - 4% have obstructive sleep apnea,  35% of children snore... this contributes to autonomic impairment during sleep, reduction in parasympathetic tone and structural changes in the brain....this can account to problems such as lack of focus, hyperactivity, learning difficulties, etc.  

So many children and adults are being misdiagnosed as ADD/ADHD when in fact the underlying cause is actually mouth breathing and sleep disordered breathing.  Mouth breathing links to multiple medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, metabolic disorders, obesity, mental health issues, and so much more!  The vast majority of children and adults with sleep problems due to mouth breathing and improper tongue posture, remain undiagnosed and untreated including 80% of those with OSA (Obstructed Sleep Apnea)

The mouth is the dirtiest part of the body. Breathing through the mouth bypasses the filtration of nasal passages and increases the toxic burden in the body.

Mouth breathing contributes to chronic physical symptoms, cognitive decline, behavior issues, emotional turmoil, skin eruptions, allergies, chronic sinus/ear infections, enlarged tonsils, adenoids , sleep apnea, night terrors, bed wetting (mouth breathing acts like a diuretic).

Mouth breathing affects oral Microbiome makes it more hospitable to pathogenic bacteria, contributing to bad breath and also one of the biggest causes of cavities.  Mouth breathing also contributes sleep disordered breathing resulting poor quality of sleep which will also affect overall health and well-being as well.

This also actives a major chronic stress response in the body,  activating sympathetic state.   Your body can't be in fight/flight and healing state at the same time.
