Tongue Exercise Spots
What are they?
MYOSPOTS are small circular pads, made of biodegradable natural polymers that are safe for internal use.
They have natural colours and flavours that give them a pleasant look and taste and are Vegan friendly. Their strong adhesive power enables them to adhere easily to the surface of the palate. Upon adhering to palate, they involuntarily induce the tongue to elevate and touch them. The repetitive induced elevation of the tongue to touch and dissolve the adhered pad, provides targeted exercise for tongue muscles to increase its tone.
Using MYOSPOTS daily for several months can also help change the tongue posture to rest against the palate to correct for mouth breathing and induce nasal breathing.
Increasing tongue muscles tone and correction of tongue posture have a lot of health benefits and assists in the treatment a range of conditions related to the weakness of tongue muscles.
