Overlooked and Important: The Muscles of the Face, Jaw, and Throat and their Impact on Quality of Sleep and Health with Myofunctional Therapist Karese Laguerre | The Matt Feret Show Podcast | #066

In this episode of The Matt Feret Show I interview Karese Laguerre, a myofunctional therapist. We discuss the importance of proper tongue posture, jaw function, and nasal hygiene for overall health and quality of sleep. She also explains how these factors can impact overall health, including breathing and brain functioning. She gives some expert advice on addressing orofacial dysfunction and emphasizes the importance of advocating for oneself with dismissive healthcare professionals.
