Let’s talk about it.
You’re a rockstar OT, PT, or SLP. You’ve seen the tongue ties, the feeding fatigue, the open-mouth posture that just won’t quit – and you’re hungry to level up. You’ve heard the term myofunctional therapy thrown around more than a toddler’s sippy cup, and you’re ready to specialize.
Then you find out there’s a credential – CMT®: Certified Myofunctional Therapist – that actually means something. Like, real clinical confidence. A gold standard. Not just another CEU badge collecting dust.
But then comes the question we get in our inbox all the time…
“Do I have to take The Myo Method in order to get certified as a CMT®?”
Short answer?
Yes.
Long answer?
Still yes – but let us tell you why.
The CMT® Isn’t Just a Title. It’s a Training Ground.
We created The Myo Method® with one goal: to fill the frustrating gaps so many courses leave behind. You know the ones – the kind that leave you asking, “But how do I actually treat this patient on Monday?”
The Myo Method® gives you:
- A full clinical framework – not just theory
- Real-life assessment tools you’ll actually use
- Mentorship (the hand-holding you wish you had in grad school)
- Video reviews, practical skills, and case guidance
- Built-in confidence that you didn’t just “check a box” – you became the expert
So yes, CMT® certification is only awarded to graduates of The Myo Method.
Not because we’re gatekeeping.
But because we’re standard-raising.
“But I’ve Taken Other Courses…”
That’s great! We love lifelong learners. But here’s the truth:
Other courses may explain what to do.
The Myo Method® shows you how to do it – and why it matters.
This program was built by a therapist who lives and breathes feeding, airway, and myo. We designed it for the clinician who wants to be more than just “aware” of oral motor dysfunction.
We’re talking full-on clinical ninja with tongue-tie X-ray vision.
The Bottom Line?
If you want the CMT® credential, The Myo Method® is your first step.
And honestly? It’s one of those steps you’ll look back on and say,
“Why didn’t I do this sooner?”
Still have questions? We love them. Reach out here and we’ll point you in the right direction.
