The essence of human life.
A Breath. A Swallow. A Voice.
Fx Therapies is built on the belief that every human deserves FUNCTIONAL breathing, eating/swallowing, and communication skills. We are here to help our clients by providing a combination of speech and language therapy, feeding/swallowing, and myofunctional therapy to help our clients reach their highest potential. These skills do not come naturally for some children or have been established habits due to various factors in our adult clients and THAT’S WHERE WE COME IN TO PLAY. Where we help our clients become functional breathers, eaters, and communicators..
