M.O.R.E Set: Integrating the Mouth with Sensory & Postural Functions

M.O.R.E. (Motor, Oral, Respiration, Eyes): Integrating the Mouth with Sensory & Postural Functions was developed from the clincial experience of Patricia Oetter, MA, OTR, FAOTA. It is model for understanding how and why many aspects of human development are significantly influenced by oral functions and more specifically, the suck/swallow/breathe synchrony.

The manual provides a theoretical framework supporting the clinically observed associations between oral/motor/respiratory dysfunction and many sensory integrative and sensorimotor problems. Now in it's second edition, it offers even more guidence to therapists on threatment strategies to bring abount improvements in sensory processing, self-regulation, postural control and motor, language and social development through use of oral/motor activity.

The M.OR.E. DVD expands on concepts introducted in the manual and offers a review of selected topics important to therapists. 

These topics include: 

• Meet Phillip: The inspiration for development of the theory and its practical applications.
• Therapuetic Use of Blow Toys: Acquaints viewers with a variety of blow toys and how to gain the most therapeutic value from them. Includes care and cleaning suggestions.
• Oral Motor Intervention Strategies: Offers some basic techniques for oral defensiveness and for oral facial muscles to improve function of the SSB.
• Postural Development: Patti Oetter's synthesis of information regarding neuro-motor development and postural from a clinical development.

Both the manual and DVD work together to illuminates the relationship between oral motor mechanisms and the sensorimotor and behavioral aspects of human function.
