Evidence‑Based Care for Children’s Breathing, Sleep, and Growth
At MyoWay, our therapy is grounded in scientific evidence. Pediatric myofunctional therapy has been evaluated in clinical studies and case reports that demonstrate meaningful outcomes in airway development, sleep quality, and functional muscle retraining.
Our Science and Research page is a curated resource designed for parents and healthcare professionals who want to understand the clinical foundations of myofunctional therapy. You’ll find downloadable PDFs covering:
