Why do we call these tools and techniques “Mouth Magic?
Because these powerful techniques assess, activate, & integrate so “magically” they help most babies we see suck, swallow, feed and transfer better so they can gain weight and thrive. Mouth magic has helped thousands avoid surgery for oral ties, when not necessary & achieve better outcomes when surgery was needed. Mouth magic helps improve nasal breathing and upper airway growth, balance the TMJ’s, grow small retrusive jaws, expand palates, better prepare for orthodontics, and have helped headaches and jaw pain disappear & so much more! That’s why we created Mouth Magic™.

You have felt the panic -- when a baby’s struggling to feed and nothing seems to help.
A few weeks ago, a talented IBCLC saw a newborn just 24 hours old. She was worried. The most they could get baby to drink from a bottle was 3 mL.
She asked me to see them the following day.
After just one treatment using Breathing Nose to Toes & a lot of Mouth Magic, everything shifted. Baby was able to transfer 29 ml from the bottle. Whew!
Baby was able to transfer 867% more after 1 Mouth Magic treatment!
I am not a feeding therapist, but by focusing on anatomy, airway, breathing, cranial-orofacial function, and posture, great things happen. This is what the Mouth Magic curriculum is all about.
Mouth Magic helps grow faces and jaws!
