Frequently asked questions

Will I be able to call myself an Orofacial Myologist?

Yes this course is a 28hr foundation course that allows a person to call themselves an Orofacial myologist however we recommend speech pathologists use the description special interest or trained in OM as it’s a modality, not a profession, and is recognised as an area under our scope of practice. For non speech pathologists, while we only accept allied health professionals, dental and Medical professionals, it is up to the professional to determine their own profession’s scope of practice and practising requirements. But to summarise, it is no different to any other 28hr intro Om course in this regards and we’re making sure our participants can join the national body.
