About the Owner

Welcome to Vine & Branch Myofunctional Therapy! My name is Andrea Rodriguez. I have a background as a biological dental hygienist certified through the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine (IABDM) and I am a myofunctional therapist certified through the Academy of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (AOMT). I’m passionate about helping patients restore balance, function, and wellness through a comprehensive, airway-focused approach to care.

With a background in biological dentistry, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the connection between oral health and the entire body. This perspective naturally led me to myofunctional therapy, where I focus on how breathing, oral habits, tongue posture, and muscle function influence not only the mouth—but overall health, sleep quality, and quality of life.

A core part of my mission is to help bridge the gap between airway-focused dentistry and myofunctional therapy. Many patients become aware of airway concerns during dental visits but may feel uncertain about their next steps—or may not be ready to pursue more invasive procedures. I created Vine & Branch as a space where patients can feel supported in taking a more natural, non-invasive approach first.

I believe healing doesn’t have to start with something overwhelming. Even the smallest step—what may feel like a “baby step”—can lead to meaningful, lasting change. Myofunctional therapy offers a gentle yet powerful way to begin improving airway health, restore proper function, and support long-term wellness.

My approach is personalized, root-cause focused, and deeply supportive. I work with children, teens, and adults to create sustainable habits that promote proper breathing, oral function, and development. Each therapy plan is thoughtfully tailored, with guidance and education every step of the way.

At Vine & Branch, my goal is for every patient to feel empowered, understood, and confident in their journey toward better health.
