YTM® Method for infants

The YTM® Method for infants is a complementary theory that works on the treatment of orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD's) in children aged 0-2. This innovative therapy was created by Yulli Tamayo-Myerson (Myofunctional Therapy UK) in 2019 and involved the development and creation of the YTM® Tool.

Examples of OMD's in children include:

• Mouth breathing or open-mouth posture

• Tongue-tie

• Thumb or dummy habits

• Low tongue posture

• Snoring or restless sleep

• Difficulty chewing or swallowing

• Frequent dribbling or messy eating

• Concerns about jaw or facial development  

The YTM® Method using the patented wellness YTM® Tool assists with improving the muscles of the face and mouth and jaw to work in harmony together enabling nasal breathing, correct tongue posture, lips closure and effective chewing and swallowing. The YTM® Method employs the following working with different pressure applications:

​

1.  Cranial nerve stimulation

2. Myofascial and tension release

3. Tissue stretching, strengthening and elongation of muscles

4. Lymphatic drainage

5. Toning and neuromuscular integration and repatterning of muscles

RESULT: Improved function, enhanced muscle tone, pain relief and improvement in orofacial health and symmetry.
