How can I help you?
Kathy’s Winslow’s dedication and passion for Myofunctional Therapy has helped many Bay Area children and adults achieve balance of their oral facial musculature.
Kathy’s motivational, non-invasive therapy helps train the muscles of the face and tongue through simple exercises that take about 5 minutes, 3 times per day.
Clients are generally seen on a bi-weekly, and occasionally on a weekly basis. A typical course of therapy will take approximately 12-15 visits dependent on the client’s needs.
The goal is to tone and improve function of the tongue, lip and facial muscles, which habituates new neuro-muscular patterns.

What others say about us
Kathy is an amazing therapist who takes the time to really understand the needs of a child and the family. She integrates her knowledge and experience with tools that allow her to meet the goals of the child. She’s creative, friendly and a joy to have around.
Kathy makes the sessions fun and is very good in incorporating themes/topics that my child loves. The clear structure and schedule of the sessions she set with him helps him to follow along and be on top of what they are working on.
After just several weeks, my child’s mouth and face have started to look stronger and more stable. The improvements have been noticed by his teachers and friends, as well. Kathy has always incorporated fun games, resources and other suggested follow-up “homework” into our appointments that my child greatly enjoys.
