  • Does the App include a Personal Trainer?

    No, it doesn’t. For the time being we do not provide that service. The application is designed for you to choose a professional qualified person you trust. It could be a rehabilitator, instructor, myofunctional therapist, a physiotherapist, a speech therapist, an otolaryngologist… usually the same person who treats you.

    In the event that person is not aware of the App yet, you can show it to him/her and encourage him/her to open a free account as a trainer.

    Once he/she creates his/her account, he/she will be given a unique code. That code is the one you should use within the App. From that moment both accounts will be linked and the personal trainer will be able to follow your progress.

    The most important thing is that you have full power. You choose your PT and if you are not happy with him/her you can cancel at any time using your App.

    The ‘Enquiry’ section is designed to consult your PT, which means that it only works if you have previously assigned one in the menu: Profile > Trainer.

The second reason is the presence of anatomic disorders in your upper airway (like tongue tie, maxillar malformation or disoclusion problems), in that case you need an evaluation by your physician.

    If you suffer from these anatomical conditions do not upload airway gym because despite you will increase your muscle tone you do not find all the expected improvement.
