In this deep-dive Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel opens up about his own decade-long battle with Lyme disease — from the tick bite in his backyard to the chronic symptoms that silently took over his life. He breaks down the three stages of nervous system dysfunction, explains why so many people struggle to heal from Lyme, and shares the exact three-step sequence that finally got him better. This episode is for anyone battling Lyme disease, suspecting they might have it, or supporting a child or loved one through it.-----Links & Resources:https://erlandsonclinic.com/https://lymestop.com/-----Key Topics & Timestamps02:00 The Three Stages of Nervous System Dysfunction 09:00 The Season of Life That Set the Stage: Stress, Pregnancy & a Busy Practice12:00 The Tick Bite, the Bullseye Rash & the Acute Infection 17:00 Going Natural First: Overnight Remedies & the Antibiotic Decision 22:00 Meeting Dr. Ben Erlandson & the Moment Everything Changed 28:00 Why More Chiropractic Adjustments Were the Turning Point 30:00 What LymeStop Is & Why the Body Has to Move Toxins Out First 44:00 Your Path Is Unique: Don't Give Up & Finding Your Dr. Ben-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel discusses the important connection between the brain and gut, and how supporting this connection is key for children's health and wellbeing. He explains how the Vagus Nerve is the main pathway between the brain and gut, and a dysfunctional Vagus Nerve caused by a stressed nervous system can lead to many chronic health issues. Dr. Ebel emphasizes the need to focus on restoring nervous system function through a neurologically-focused chiropractor to truly help heal the gut and microbiome.Links & Resources:Episode 8: Why the Vagus Nerve is Key to Unlocking Your Child's Healing Potential[Apple/Spotify]Key Topics Covered:00:00 Why Gut Healing Often Stalls01:06 Understanding the Microbiome Made Simple06:45 The Missing Nervous System Connection09:43 How the Brain Controls Digestion12:53 Vagus Nerve & Gut Communication15:58 The Perfect Storm Behind Dysfunction19:43 Dysautonomia, Stress & Inflammation Explained26:13 Measuring Subluxation Through INSiGHT Scans28:34 Birth Trauma & Chronic Gut Issues30:34 Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Explained34:54 Practical Next Steps for Families-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Parents often wonder why chiropractic adjustments are so quick and whether every child is getting the same treatment. In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the two most common questions he hears from families: why are adjustments so short, and how is care truly personalized? He explains the "less is more" principle, why the healing actually happens between visits — not on the table — and how a two-minute neurotonal adjustment can be more powerful and effective than an hour of nonstop therapy. Dr. Tony also addresses why an over-adjusted or overstimulated nervous system simply stops receiving input, and why frequency and the totality of a care plan matter far more than the length of any single visit.-----Key Topics & Timestamps05:00 C1 vs. C2: Why It Looks the Same But Isn't 07:00 Neurotonal Care, the PX Docs Certification & the "Less Is More" Principle 13:00 What Happens When a Dysregulated Nervous System Gets Overloaded 18:00 Frequency, Specificity & What Happens Between Visits 21:00 The Exercise Analogy: Why Overdoing It Stalls Progress 26:00 The Baseball Analogy: Setting the Stage for Bigger Healing 34:00 The Computer Analogy: Limited Processing Power & the Freeze State 41:00 How to Track Progress: Soft Signs & INSiGHT Scans 44:00 Ask Your Doctor for More & Trust the Process-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses one of the most common and heartbreaking frustrations parents of children with chronic illness face: doing everything right and still not seeing results. Dr. Tony reframes the problem entirely — it's not that the interventions are wrong, it's that they're being applied in the wrong order and on top of a broken foundation. He walks through the neurophysiological science of why healing follows a predictable sequence, introduces his clinical intake process, and lays out a clear four-step healing playbook: fix the nervous system foundation first, then movement integration, then gut and immune detoxification, and finally the brain. This episode is essential listening for any parent who feels stuck, and for every provider on their child's care team.----Links & Resources:Register for the FREE & VIRTUAL Resilient Family summit: thepxdocs.com/familyEp 51.

In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most emotionally charged and scientifically complex questions parents ask: why do some kids go through the same birth interventions — C-sections, forceps, vacuum, induction — and come out healthy, while others spiral into chronic illness, neurodevelopmental challenges, and the perfect storm? Dr. Tony breaks it all down through the lens of nervous system resilience, the house and storm analogy, and the upstream factors that shape a child's ability to handle stress before they ever take their first breath. This is not a conversation about blame — it's a conversation about clarity, understanding, and how to move your family powerfully forward.-----Links & Resources:Register for the FREE & VIRTUAL Resilient Family Summit: thepxdocs.com/family-----Key Topics & Timestamps01:00 The Real Scope of Birth Interventions and the Perfect Storm 06:00 Birth Trauma Is Real: The Malpractice and Actuarial Science Case 14:00 Introducing the House and Storm Analogy 20:00 Survival vs. Thriving: The Gap Nobody Talks About 23:00 Oliver's Story and the Pre-Storm Work That Matters Most 27:00 How Maternal Stress and Prenatal Health Shape Baby's Nervous System 32:00 Why Two Kids With the Same C-Section Can Have Completely Different Outcomes36:00 Adaptability, Reserve Capacity, and Resilience: The Three Terms to Know 51:00 It's Not Your Fault: The Closing Message Every Parent Needs to Hear-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Dr. Tony Ebel takes a deep dive into one of the most important — and most overlooked — root causes behind chronic childhood illness: dysautonomia. He breaks down what dysautonomia actually is, how it connects seemingly unrelated symptoms across the gut, immune system, brain, and body, and why the conventional medical model of siloed specialists keeps so many families stuck without real answers. Using the real-life case of patient Connor — a young athlete who went from mysterious fevers, rashes, and inflammation to thriving — Dr. Tony shows exactly how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care targets dysautonomia at its root. He also walks through the INSiGHT scanning technology used to measure and map dysautonomia, and sends every parent home with one powerful truth: it may not be 57 different problems. It may be one.-----Links & Resources:Register for the FREE Resilient Family Summit: thepxdocs.com/familyConnor's Success Story: Read hereLearn more about the INSiGHT Scans here: https://pxdocs.com/nervous-system/insight-scans/-----Key Moments:03:30 How Dysautonomia Connects Gut, Immune, Brain, and Body Dysfunction 07:00 Connor's Story: Fevers, Rashes, and a Kid Who Wasn't Himself 10:00 Four Specialists in Three Weeks and Still No Answers 17:00 The Air Traffic Control Analogy: What Dysautonomia Actually Is 21:00 How Dysautonomia Showed Up Across Connor's Entire Body 25:00 Why the Medical System Loses the Forest for the Trees 31:00 The INSiGHT Scans: Measuring and Mapping Dysautonomia 39:00 Connor's Update and How to Take Action-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most emotionally charged topics parents face — bedwetting and enuresis. He breaks down the complex neurophysiology behind bladder control, explains why conventional explanations like low antidiuretic hormone (ADH) are real but incomplete, and walks parents through the three outcomes he sees clinically when kids receive Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care. Dr. Tony connects the dots between nervous system dysregulation, sympathetic dominance, disrupted circadian rhythms, and why so many kids struggle to stay dry at night — and more importantly, what parents can do about it at the root cause level.------Links & Resources: Register for the FREE & VIRTUAL Resilient Family Summit: thepxdocs.com/familyFree article: Understanding & Overcoming Nocturnal Enuresis-----Key Topics & Timestamps1:00 Why Bedwetting Is Both an Emotional and Neurological Milestone03:00 The Three Clinical Outcomes Dr. Tony Sees in Practice07:00 Subluxation, the Neurospinal System & the Brain-Bladder Pathway10:00 When Emotional Trauma Is the Root Cause13:00 Physical Stress, Birth Trauma & the Lumbosacral Region15:00 Chemical Stress, Neuroinflammation & the Gut Connection16:00 The Fuse Box Analogy Explained28:00 ADH, the Autonomic Nervous System & Why the Hormonal Explanation Is Incomplete31:00 The Neurophysiological Pendulum Effect & Deep Sleep Connection43:00 Finding Root Cause Care & Next Steps for Your Family-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Dr. Tony Ebel sits down with Dr. Melonie — perinatal chiropractor, board-certified lactation consultant, and one of the leading voices in pediatric neurological care — for a conversation that will change the way you think about breastfeeding. They break down why latch struggles, low milk supply, and early breastfeeding failure are not mom's fault — they are nervous system issues rooted in birth trauma. Dr. Melonie walks through the neuromechanics of the first milestone, why the formula industry is positioned to swoop in at exactly the right moment of vulnerability, and what a neurologically focused care plan actually looks like for newborns. The conversation then shifts to their recent trip to Washington, D.C., where they sat in rooms with MAHA leaders and chiropractic advocates pushing for real policy change around maternal and infant health — and why both of them believe the tide is finally turning.----Links & Resources:Register for the FREE Resilient family summit: thepxdocs.com/familyFollow Dr. Melonie on Instagram: @beginwellcoWebsite: https://www.beginwellco.com/For Professionals: https://www.certifiedlactationprofessional.com/----Key Topics & Timestamps01:00 Introducing Dr. Melonie: perinatal expert, lactation consultant, and legislative advocate09:00 Dr. Melonie's story: the unnecessary C-section that started it all11:00 The formula trap: trauma → tension → tired → Nestlé shows up16:00 C-section moms and milk supply: what no one tells you in the hospital21:00 The first milestone: latch as a full-body neurological event28:00 Why Dr. Melonie became a lactation consultant: the mom she couldn't save in time30:00 Pumping vs. latching: oxytocin, co-regulation, and what gets lost44:00 Washington, D.C.: what happened in the MAHA and chiropractic meetings55:00 Storming, forming, norming: the path to making healthy families the norm-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common and frustrating questions he hears from parents: does every child really have Lyme, Candida, and parasites — or are we missing something bigger? Dr. Tony walks through the three tiers of healthcare most families cycle through, explains why constantly chasing and killing pathogens is an incomplete approach, and makes the case that nervous system dysregulation is the hidden root cause underneath nearly all chronic illnesses in kids. Using an accessible low-battery-mode analogy, he explains why no supplement, protocol, or detox program can fully work in a neurologically depleted body — and what parents need to do first to actually get results.-----Links & ResourcesFree article :Simple Ways to Support Your Child's Nervous System at HomeEpisode 44: The 4 Phases of Neurological Healing [Apple/Spotify]-----Key Topics & Timestamps1:00 The three tiers of healthcare most families cycle through03:00 Why the "kill the bad guys" medical philosophy is fundamentally incomplete05:00 Introducing the third approach: building resilience instead of chasing pathogens08:00 Validating parent frustration: why more testing leads to more problems14:00 Presence does not equal problem: pathogens as part of a normal biological ecosystem16:00 Nervous system dysregulation: the real root cause behind every chronic illness pattern19:00 The low battery mode analogy: how a depleted nervous system shuts down healing27:00 The shift: stop asking what infections they have, start asking why the body can't handle them35:00 How to reorder your care hierarchy and what to do next-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the critical but widely overlooked role the vagus nerve plays in autoimmune conditions, chronic inflammation, and immune system dysregulation. Dr. Ebel opens with a first-hand update from his trip to Washington, D.C. and the MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) movement — sharing why chiropractic has always been at the forefront of this fight and what the nervous system conversation is still missing from the national health discussion. He then dives deep into the neuroscience of why the body can't shut off inflammation without a functioning vagus nerve, why medications and supplements alone will never be enough, and what parents need to know about the Perfect Storm that begins as early as birth. Dr. Ebel also covers practical nutrition steps, the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway, how chiropractic adjustments directly impact inflammatory markers, and how to test vagus nerve function through heart rate variability (HRV).-----Links & Resources: Read more about the vagus nerve & autoimmune conditions in this article:https://pxdocs.com/vagus-nerve/vagus-nerve-and-autoimmune-connection/Read more about Dr. Tony's experience at the MEVI meetings here:https://pxdocs.com/nervous-system/maha-mevi-meeting/-----Key Topics & Timestamps02:00 Dr. Ebel's Trip to Washington, D.C. & the MAHA Movement 07:00 How the Medical-Pharmaceutical System Took Over & What Needs to Change 10:00 The MEVI Meeting: Vaccines, Adverse Reactions & the Sickest Generation of Kids 15:00 The Missing Piece in the Autoimmune Conversation: Nervous System Dysregulation 18:00 The Perfect Storm: Where Autoimmune Conditions Actually Begin 19:00 Why Conventional & Functional Medicine Both Fall Short 23:00 The Vagus Nerve: The Immune System's Built-In Off Switch 29:00 The Pattern We See in Practice: From Sick Baby to Autoimmune Diagnosis 39:00 The Cholinergic Anti-Inflammatory Pathway & How Chiropractic Fits In 47:00 Nutrition & Toxic Load: What to Add and Remove 57:00 How to Test Vagus Nerve Function: HRV & Finding a PX Doc-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common — and misunderstood — challenges in pediatric neurodevelopment: the "drunken bull." These are the kids who are clumsy, uncoordinated, low-toned, and always a step behind their peers physically. Dr. Tony breaks down why this is not a muscular problem, not something kids simply grow out of, and not solved by more reps in PT. He explains the true neurological root cause — subluxation and disrupted sensory input — and lays out the exact care plan, technique approach, and team-building strategy that gets these kiddos moving, thriving, and reaching their full athletic and academic potential. He also shares the personal story of his daughter Elena's journey through a growth-spurt-driven drunken bull season and what it took to get her back on track.-----Links & Resources:Learn more:Low Muscle Tone in Children with AutismHypotonia: The Neurological Roots Behind "Floppy Baby Syndrome"-----Key Topics & Timestamps00:05 Diagnostic Terms Parents Will Actually Hear: DCD, Hypotonia, Ataxia, Dyspraxia & More00:10 Yes, Drunken Bulls Can Get Better — Here's Where to Start00:12 The Three Areas Drunken Bulls Struggle: Physical, Academic & Emotional00:15 Why This Is a Neurological Problem, Not a Muscular One00:19 What Everyone Else Is Missing: The Brainstem & Cervical Spine Connection00:23 How Coordination Actually Works: Input, Processing & Output00:26 Why PT Alone Will Never Be Enough Without Clearing the Subluxation First00:30 Elena's Story: Six Inches in One Year & What We Did About It00:33 The Right Adjusting Frequency, Technique & Locations for Drunken Bulls00:40 What to Look for in a Neurologically-Focused PT00:44 Building the Right Care Team — and Who Doesn't Make the Cut-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Dr. Tony Ebel delivers a long-awaited, deeply personal, and scientifically complete breakdown of MTHFR and methylation — and why the way most people are talking about it is leaving families more scared and more stuck than ever. Drawing from his background in molecular biology, his time as a farm kid watching the rise of GMO agriculture, and a pivotal encounter with Dr. Bruce Lipton's epigenetics work in chiropractic school, Dr. Tony reframes MTHFR not as a life sentence, but as one piece of a much bigger puzzle. The real upstream factor most experts are missing? The nervous system. This episode gives parents the full, complete story — the science, the mindset, and a clear action plan — so they can stop feeling broken and start building genuine, lasting health for themselves and their children.-----Key Topics & Timestamps3:00 Why the current MTHFR conversation is stealing hope from families 07:00 Dr. Tony's backstory: farm life, GMOs, and the roots of genetic theory 14:00 Meeting Dr. Bruce Lipton and the discovery of epigenetics 23:00 Genes influence potential, but epigenetics determines expression 29:00 What MTHFR actually is and why it sounds like nervous system regulation34:00 The deck of cards analogy: how lifestyle plays out your genetic hand 43:00 Why symptoms show up later in life: allostatic load and the bucket analogy 49:00 The autonomic nervous system controls detox, inflammation, and methylation 54:00 Epigenetics is empowering, not scary — and it's changeable 58:00 The practical checklist: how to actually address MTHFR starting today-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Dr. Tony Ebel takes a deep dive into one of the most common questions from parents in the neurodevelopmental space: does red light laser therapy help activate the vagus nerve and accelerate brain function in kids? Dr. Tony doesn't give a simple yes or no — instead, he breaks down the neurophysiology of how brains are built, why sequencing matters more than the intervention itself, and why lasers that work beautifully for adult brain injuries may actually backfire for children with neurodevelopmental disorders when used too soon. He also shares his clinical philosophy, how his team uses HRV to measure real nervous system progress, and what it looks like to build a complete, properly sequenced healing team for your child.-----Key Topics & Timestamps01:00 The Question: Do Red Light Lasers Activate the Vagus Nerve?02:00 Why PX Docs Don't Use Lasers & How HRV Measures What Actually Works07:00 How the Brain Is Built: Bottom Up, Back Forward11:00 Why Lasers Work for Adults but Not Always for Kids13:00 What Happens When You Heal Out of Order17:00 Subluxation Must Be Addressed Before Any Other Intervention20:00 Two Outcomes Once Neurological Stability Is Reached & Building Your Child's Healing Team-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

Most parents have been told that autism meltdowns are a behavior problem — something to be managed, redirected, or disciplined away. Dr. Tony Ebel says that's the wrong framework entirely. In this episode, he breaks down what's actually driving meltdowns at the neurological level, why so many well-meaning therapies can accidentally make things worse, and what it truly looks like to address the root cause from the inside out. Through the real-time story of a patient named Mikey — a child who traveled from the UK to Chicago for intensive care — Dr. Tony brings this science to life in a way that is both hopeful and deeply practical.-----Key Topics & Timestamps3:00 The Outside vs. Inside Framework: How This Episode Is Structured8:00 How the Modern World Is Overloading Our Kids' Nervous Systems11:00 Environmental Dysregulation: What Parents and Providers Can Control13:00  Transitions, Overstimulation, and Why Schedules Matter18:00 Mikey's Story: What Real Nervous System Healing Looks Like25:00 Why Outside-In Interventions Stop Working — and What That Reveals26:00 The True Function of the Nervous System31:00 What "Fixing" Meltdowns Actually Means (And What It Doesn't)35:00 Our Real Job as Parents: Raising Resilient, Adaptable Kids40:00 Action steps for deep and lasting Change-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles a deeply important question: how does childhood trauma and abuse impact neural tone and subluxation? Dr. Ebel walks parents, caregivers, and providers through the neurological reality of trauma — explaining why it doesn't just live in the mind, but gets physically stored in the nervous system. He breaks down why talk therapy, medication, and even faith-based counseling sometimes aren't enough on their own, what the INSiGHT scans reveal about a traumatized child's nervous system, and exactly where in the body trauma sets up shop anatomically. The episode closes with a message of hope: your child is not broken, and when you address the nervous system first, everything else — therapy, connection, healing — finally has a foundation to work from.-----Key Topics & Timestamps02:00 Today's Question: How Does Childhood Trauma Impact Neural Tone & Subluxation?07:30 Trauma Is Not Just Remembered — It's Wired Into the Nervous System09:00 Why You Can't Think, Talk, or Medicate Your Way Out of Stored Trauma12:00 You Didn't Cause This: A Word for Foster & Adoptive Parents14:00 The Most Important Point: Trauma Stores Neurologically, Physiologically & Physically17:00 The Wound-Up but Worn-Out Child: What Trauma Looks Like Clinically24:00 Why Childhood Trauma Scores a "5" on the Perfect Storm Scale30:00 HRV: The Scan That Tells the Full Story of a Traumatized Nervous System36:00 Where Trauma Lives in the Body: The 5 Anatomical Subluxation Locations-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this powerful episode, Dr. Tony Ebel sits down with Dr. Brian Hooker, PhD — Senior Director of Science and Research at Children's Health Defense and co-author of the New York Times bestselling book Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak. Brian shares his personal journey as a father whose son regressed into autism following his 15-month vaccines, and how that experience drove over 20 years of research and advocacy. Together, they connect the dots between C-section birth, recurrent ear infections, acetaminophen, and vaccine injury — the full picture of the "perfect storm." Brian also recounts his relationship with CDC whistleblower Dr. William Thompson, the suppressed MMR data, the dangers of glyphosate and acetaminophen, and what Children's Health Defense is focused on to both heal kids already in the storm and prevent the next generation from entering it.-----Links & Resources:website: https://childrenshealthdefense.org/book: Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak (available on Amazon)-----Key Topics & Timestamps07:00 Brian's Personal Story: His Son's Birth, Early Development, and the Perfect Storm09:00 The 15-Month Well-Baby Visit: Vaccines, Ear Infection, and the Regression into Autism13:00 C-Section Deep Dive: Birth Trauma, the Brainstem, and the Neurological Connection20:00 Finding an Integrative Pediatrician and the First Hair Metals Test22:00 The CDC Calls and Dr. William Thompson: From Dismissal to Whistleblower25:00 What the Suppressed MMR Data Actually Showed29:00 The Origin of Vax-Unvax and the 100 Studies That Changed Everything34:00 Vaccinated vs. Unvaccinated: What the Science Says About Children's Health42:00 Beyond Vaccines: Glyphosate and Acetaminophen as Neuro-Immune Threats47:00 Healing Protocols, CHD's Mission, and Preventing the Next Generation's Perfect Storm-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

A parent asks Dr. Tony Ebel for his thoughts on stem cell therapy for children on the autism spectrum. Rather than giving a simple yes or no, Dr. Tony walks through the three possible outcomes of any intervention — improvement, no change, or regression — and explains why the sequence of healing matters just as much as the intervention itself. He shares his clinical observations on stem cells to date, why he currently gives them a "strong yellow light," and why he believes the children who respond best are those who have first spent one to three years building a neurological foundation through chiropractic care, clean nutrition, and movement-based therapies. He closes with a powerful analogy explaining why an exhausted nervous system simply cannot respond to even the best interventions.------Key Topics & Timestamps00:02 Dr. Tony's 30,000-Foot Answer: A Strong Yellow Light00:05 Why Dr. Tony Doesn't Currently Recommend Stem Cells & What He'd Need to Change That00:06 The Three Possible Outcomes of Any Intervention00:10 Clinical Observations: What He's Actually Seen With Stem Cell Case00:17 How Stem Cells Work & Why They're Different From Supplements or Medication00:19 The One Variable That Determines Whether Stem Cells Work: Nervous System Stability00:23 The Children Who Responded Best — And What They Did First-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel takes a deep dive into sensory processing challenges — what they really are, where they come from, and most importantly, what to do about them. Rather than approaching sensory issues as a fixed disorder, Dr. Tony explains how they stem from nervous system dysregulation rooted in early physical stressors like birth trauma, pregnancy stress, and toxic overload. He walks parents through the neuroscience of subluxation, sympathetic dominance, and vagus nerve dysfunction, and makes the case that true healing starts at the neurospinal foundation — not the gut, not supplements, not sensory workarounds.

Infantile spasms are one of the most frightening neurological emergencies a parent can face — and most families are told that 80 to 90% of children will go on to have lifelong developmental delays and continued seizure disorders. In this deep dive, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down what infantile spasms actually are, what's driving them at the root level, and what the families who beat the odds are doing differently. He walks through the perfect storm of birth trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and subluxation that underlies nearly every case he has seen — and explains why the warning signs are almost always there long before the spasms begin. Drawing from his own son Oliver's story and the remarkable case of twins Jordan and Teo, Dr. Tony makes clear that emergency medical care is non-negotiable — and makes an equally strong case for why Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care needs to be part of the plan from day one to address the root cause and give every kiddo the best possible shot at a full, healthy, seizure-free life.-----Links & ResourcesUnderstanding Infantile Spasms: A Comprehensive Guide for ParentsPWC Intensive Program for Advanced Neurological Cases: https://premierwellnesschiro.com/the-perfect-storm/-----Key Topics & Timestamps4:00  Medical First: Why Emergency Care and an Epileptologist Are Non-Negotiable8:00 What Are Infantile Spasms?

In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses one of the most emotionally loaded questions he receives: what happens to premature and NICU babies long-term — and what can families do about it? Drawing from both his clinical expertise and his deeply personal experience with his own son Oliver, Dr. Tony walks parents through the neuroscience of why NICU babies get stuck in survival mode, what steroids, vaccines, and medical interventions do to an already-stressed nervous system, and — most importantly — the drug-free, nervous-system-focused path to healing.

Most parents are running on empty — and no amount of supplements, bloodwork, or health hacks is fixing it. In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel dedicates an entire conversation to parent health, revealing the number one missing test that conventional and functional medicine both overlook: HRV (Heart Rate Variability) testing. Dr. Tony breaks down the five zones of nervous system health, helps you identify exactly where you are, and gives you specific, actionable strategies for each zone — from the wound-up, hard-charging CrossFit parent all the way to the fully depleted, chronically ill parent in autonomic collapse.

Teeth grinding in kids is more than a dental issue — it's a window into the nervous system. In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down why teeth grinding happens, why common interventions often don't stick, and what the correct sequence of care actually looks like. He explains how nervous system dysregulation and spinal subluxation are the true root cause, why structural fixes like palate expanders and mouth guards can only go so far without addressing the neurospinal system first, and how to know your child is genuinely getting better — not just temporarily improved.-----Links & ResourcesEpisode 71: Mouth Breathing Matters: The Impact of Airway Health on Your Child's Development [Apple/Spotify]-----Key Topics & Timestamps01:00 Sleep as the foundation: why teeth grinding is never just a teeth problem02:30 Nervous system stress as the true root cause of teeth grinding07:00 Why the jaw, palate, and airway are symptoms — not the source08:30 Why myofunctional therapy and cranial work help but often don't last11:00 Tone of the nervous system first, structure second, symptoms third19:30 The three tiers of intervention and the sequence that actually works32:00 Sleep as the #1 sign you're on the right track33:30 Tracking real progress through Insight scans, EMG, and HRV-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the real reason children walk on their toes — and why it has nothing to do with tight muscles. In this episode, he explains how toe walking is a signal of deeper nervous system dysfunction rooted in the brainstem and neurospinal system, not the feet. Dr. Tony walks parents through the key neurological concepts behind toe walking, why conventional treatments miss the mark, and how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care addresses the root cause. He also offers honest, reassuring guidance for parents of older children who are still toe-walking — reminding them that growth spurts, stress, and time are all part of the healing journey.----Links & Resources:Sign up for the FREE LIVE March 5th Kick the Sick Webinar: www.thepxdocs.com/kick-the-sickArticle: What is Subluxation?Article: What is Proprioception?-----Key Topics & Timestamps00:05 What you've been told about toe walking that isn't true00:08 The four neurological root causes: subluxation, proprioception, whole body apraxia, and vestibular dysfunction00:16 The wifi router analogy: sympathetic dominance, the posterior chain, and compensated gait00:19 The nervous system bucket: how stress, trauma, and growth fill it up00:25 Why Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care works when everything else hasn't00:33 What actually changes in the body when nervous system regulation improves00:34 Encouragement for parents of kids still toe walking — and what to do next-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Dr. Tony Ebel reveals the critical missing piece in the MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) movement's children's health strategy. While the MAHA report thoroughly addresses toxins, nutrition, and environmental factors affecting kids' health, it overlooks a fundamental issue present in nearly 100% of children struggling with autism, ADHD, and chronic health challenges: nervous system dysregulation stemming from birth trauma and early life stress. Dr. Tony shares his commitment to bringing this missing piece to national policy discussions while offering hope to parents that their children aren't broken and there's a path forward.-----Links & ResourcesThe MAHA Report – Make Our Children Healthy Again https://www.whitehouse.gov/maha/-----Key Topics & Timestamps03:00 The Chronic Illness Epidemic in Children9:00 The Neurological Side of MAHA: Flipping the Script14:00 How the Brain Stuck in Survival Mode Changes Everything19:00 The Gut-Brain Connection and Vagal Nerve Dysfunction22:00 Neuroinflammation and the Developmental Impact27:00 Birth Trauma: The First Stress Test (Without Blame)31:00 Why Kids Aren't Broken: The Path Forward34:00 Neurologically Focused Chiropractic: The Missing Profession-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most common questions from parents: Can kids really heal from food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities? Dr. Tony explains that food reactions aren't just about the gut or immune system—they're fundamentally a nervous system regulation issue. He breaks down the critical connection between the vagus nerve, digestive function, and immune tolerance, explaining how subluxation creates a cycle of immune overreaction and gut dysfunction. Dr. Tony outlines a healing approach that prioritizes nervous system stability through chiropractic care, followed by functional medicine interventions. He emphasizes that healing is absolutely possible but requires time, the right sequence of care, and combining both approaches for exponential results—what he calls "one plus one equals 11.-----Links & ResourcesReferenced Episodes:How Dairy & Grains Can Actually Be a Health Food w/ Jordan Rubin [Apple/Spotify]Complete Gut Healing: Why Diet Changes & Detox Don't Always Work [Apple/Spotify]Referenced Providers/Organizations:https://mywellrooted.com/https://documentinghope.com/----Key Topics & Timestamps05:00 Understanding allergies vs. sensitivities and intolerances08:00 The vagus nerve: The boss of digestion and immune tolerance13:00 Sympathetic dominance: Why the immune system is always on high alert17:00 These kids aren't broken—they're stuck in a pattern18:00 Step one: Adjust the subluxation and restore nervous system regulation24:00 Functional medicine components: Gut lining, microbiome, inflammation, detox27:00 One plus one equals 111: Combining chiropractic and functional medicine29:00 Neurological soft signs of healing to watch for31:00 Final encouragement: Healing is a process and miracles are possible-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel takes a deep dive into childhood behavior, challenging the outdated chemical imbalance theory and revealing the neurological root causes behind tantrums, meltdowns, and ADHD-like behaviors. He introduces the “Perfect Storm”—key factors that can trap a child's nervous system in fight-or-flight—and explains how dysautonomia, proprioception, and brainstem dysfunction drive what looks like misbehavior. Most importantly, Dr. Tony reassures parents that these struggles aren't bad parenting or genetic bad luck, but nervous system imbalances that can be identified and addressed through drug-free, neurologically focused care.-----Links & Resources:Listen to our episode on the lasting effects of birth traumaExplore our free ADHD resources and articlesLearn more about the INSiGHT scans (and how to get them) here.-----Key Moments:01:00 The Reality of Behavior Issues: Why They're So Exhausting06:00 The Perfect Storm Element #1: High-Stress Pregnancy07:00 The Perfect Storm Element #2: Birth Trauma & Intervention10:00 The Perfect Storm Element #3: Early Medication Exposure13:00 Understanding Proprioception: The Movement-Based Solution17:00 They Don't Grow Out of It—They Grow Into Tantrums19:00 Parents Know Best: Trusting Your Instincts Over Testing21:00 Neurological Insight Scans: We Don't Guess, We Test-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses a question that deeply concerns seizure parents: why seizures often increase during developmental leaps. Drawing from both clinical experience and his personal journey as a father, he explains how these temporary upticks can be part of neurological growth and healing, not necessarily regression. Dr. Tony breaks down the neuroscience behind neuroplasticity, increased metabolic demand, and why the nervous system can look more unstable before reorganizing more effectively. He also shares clear guidance on how to support your child during these phases, how to tell the difference between healing progress and true setbacks, and when additional medical support is needed.-----Links & ResourcesListen to the deep dive seizures episode here.Get access to our free guide to improve your child's sleep here.-----Key Topics Covered:3:00 Dr. Tony's personal story and his son's seizure journey6:00 Reframing the challenge and when an uptick may signal healing11:00 The neuroscience of neuroplasticity and temporary instability14:00 Why vulnerable nervous systems struggle more during developmental leaps17:00 Three key signs to distinguish healing progression from true regression22:00 How parents can support their child through regulation, sleep, and metabolic needs26:00 Metabolic demand and the immune system connection30:00 The vagus nerve's role in neurological stability32:00 Understanding regression as part of progression in healing36:00 Practical recap and warning signs that require medical review40:00 Closing encouragement and how to submit future questions-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel discusses retained primitive reflexes and their role in neurodevelopmental disorders. He challenges the common perception that retained primitive reflexes are a primary root cause of issues like autism and ADHD. Instead, Dr. Ebel argues that retained reflexes are a secondary or tertiary symptom of underlying nervous system dysfunction, specifically sympathetic dominance and subluxation. He emphasizes the importance of addressing these root causes through Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care before pursuing other interventions.-----Key Timestamps:[00:02:00] - Overview of retained primitive reflexes and their perceived importance[00:05:00] - Dr. Ebel's background in functional neurology training[00:08:00] - Explanation of the "perfect storm" concept in neurodevelopmental disorders[00:11:00] - Dr. Ebel's experience with functional neurology and its limitations[00:14:00] - Discussion on the potential negative effects of focusing solely on primitive reflexes[00:16:00] - The sequence of neurological dysfunction and its relation to retained reflexes[00:22:00] - The importance of neurologically focused chiropractic care as a first intervention[00:25:00] - The three R's of neurological healing: Release, Rebuild, Restore[00:28:00] - Explanation of neurological stability and its importance[00:30:00] - The role of other therapies (PT, OT, speech) after achieving neurological stability[00:32:00] - Why addressing nervous system dysfunction can improve the effectiveness of other interventions-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.
