Meet Erica Cavaluzzi
Owner, Head Oral Myofunctional Therapist
Erica Cavaluzzi is a registered dental hygienist with a Bachelor of Science degree from the Pennsylvania College of Technology. Caring for patients since 2005, she is focused on full-body wellness with a strong awareness of the importance of prevention and early intervention.
​
A journey for ultimate health for herself, her husband and her daughters sparked a strong interest and better understanding of the importance of proper facial, oral and airway development. As a result, she pursued further education and training in oral myofunctional therapy. She trained with the Academy of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy in 2018 and completed the MyoMentor program with Sarah Hornsby. To further expand her knowledge, she pursued courses on functional breathing with Dr. Dan Hanson and Patrick McKeown, developed a better understanding of how to address facial pain with Timothy King and became a certified MyoMunchee provider with Dr. Mary Bourke.
In 2020, Erica founded Facial Fitness and Well-Being, a telehealth oral myofunctional therapy practice based in Northern Virginia where she serves clients of all ages. Whether the goal is to eliminate a habit (thumb sucking, mouth breathing), maximize the results of a frenectomy, or develop a dynamic team for an optimal guided growth program, Erica is committed to and truly enjoys coaching individuals through their personal health journey.
