In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel discusses neurological detoxification—what happens when children begin Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care. He explains why detoxes, which can appear as regressions or negative symptoms, are actually positive signs of healing and progress. Dr. Ebel breaks down the mechanisms behind these detoxes, how they affect different body systems, and provides practical guidance for parents to support their children through this process. He emphasizes that these temporary challenges lead to profound improvements in sleep, behavior, digestion, and overall development.[00:01:00] Understanding Neurological DetoxesWhat happens when starting nervous system-focused careWhy some children experience symptoms that appear to be moving in the "wrong direction"How clinical protocols have improved over time for better management of detox reactions[00:08:00] Physical Signs of DetoxificationCommon temporary changes: fatigue, increased mucus, fever, skin breakoutsHow digestion shifts from constipation to more frequent eliminationEmotional and behavioral fluctuations during healing[00:12:00] Autonomic Nervous System FunctionThe role of sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic systemsHow children with chronic illness get stuck in sympathetic dominanceWhy activating the vagus nerve is essential for detoxification[00:17:00] The Perfect Storm Model of Chronic IllnessThe sequence of triggers that lead to autism and chronic illnessEmotional stress during pregnancy and birth trauma as primary factorsHow physical damage to the brainstem creates subluxation[00:26:00] Three Types of Children: The Bull AnalogiesRaging bull: Hyperactive, always moving, won't sit still (ADHD-like)Drunken bull: Struggles with focus, coordination, and processing (ADD-like)Exhausted bull: Shut down, withdrawn nervous systemWhy children need to go through missed developmental stages[00:32:00] The Motor System and Brain DevelopmentThe importance of sequential motor milestonesHow sensory-motor function provides a window into brain functionWhy motor patterns are more connected to brain function than gut function[00:39:00] Supporting Your Child Through DetoxWhy staying consistent with care is crucialPrioritizing sleep and temporarily reducing therapy loadNourishing the body and trusting the process[00:44:00] The Path ForwardWhy leaning in rather than backing off leads to breakthroughsThe "messy middle" leads to the biggest healing breakthroughsAvoiding the addition of too many therapies during detox-- 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.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) an estimated 1.3 billion people or 16% of the global population have a significant disability. A disability is a condition that can be mental or physical, and can affect a person's vision, movement, thinking, learning, communication, hearing, mental health or social relationships. However, not all disabilities are the same. Some disabilities are genetic, passed down from generation to generation, while others may have been caused by an incident out of the person's control. In this episode of Exploring Ethics, Professor Joseph Stramondo will discuss the narrative, identity and ethics of choosing disability.

Hayley is the heart behind Alee Disability Support Services, bringing a deep understanding and lived experience to support parents of children with a disability. Hayley's youngest daughter Pippa was born with Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome – a rare genetic condition which means Pippa has difficulty swallowing, floppy muscles, terrible sleep, intellectual delay and big feelings.In June 2021, life became even more complicated when Hayley was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Facing major surgery, and at the same time, Pippa had just undergone surgery to place a feeding tube in her tummy and required extensive care.Hayley sought assistance from National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), but the support she needed wasn't readily available. In Hayley's words, it felt like life was falling apart.Then, someone said they could help. Even though support coordination wasn't initially part of their NDIS plan, a support coordinator showed Hayley how to use Pippa's plan more effectively and get the help they so desperately needed at the time.In today's podcast episode, Hayley sheds light into navigating the NDIS and provides support for parents who have a child with a developmental delay or disability.** This podcast has general information only.

Every child in California under 3 is entitled to early intervention services like physical, speech, and occupational therapy if they show signs that they need developmental support. Experts say getting these services early and in-person is critical for babies' development, and that it can actually reduce the need for special education services later in life. But many families aren't receiving the care they need. KQED's Daisy Nguyen explains why.

Dr. Kathy considers a new report that highlights where some developmental delays may come from. With many turning to technology and the pandemic era policies, Dr. Kathy considers parental involvement and gives parents some helpful tips on engaging their child.

Developmental delay prevalence has risen from 4% to 6% and the CDC concludes that 1 in 6 kids has a developmental issue! We are seeing more and more kids with unevenness of skills, often indicating that one side of the brain is more developed than the other side of the brain.

In a world where the intricacies of our legal system intersect with the heart-wrenching struggles of society's most vulnerable, emerges a remarkable individual whose unwavering dedication knows no bounds. Join us for an exceptionally heartfelt episode of the Heart of Law as our compassionate host, Mirena Umizaj introduces us to prominent Attorney Steve New, a founding member of Stephen New & Associates. Together, they embark on a poignant exploration to uncover the raw realities behind society's two profound wounds: the heart-rending cases of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) and the harrowing conditions within our prison system.  At the heart of today's episode stands a legal luminary who has been a cherished friend of our host, Mirena Umizaj, for more than a decade. With a remarkable career spanning 25 years, Attorney Steve New has championed justice in various legal domains, from catastrophic and wrongful death cases to mass environmental damage and employment discrimination. However, what truly sets him apart is his fearless pursuit of justice in civil rights litigation, confronting the government and state of West Virginia to expose inhumane prison conditions while passionately advocating for babies born with NAS, a cause close to his heart since 2018. His unwavering commitment to these endeavors is exemplified by his impressive track record, having tried over 60 cases to jury verdict and making 8 appearances before the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals.  As Mirena and Attorney Steve New embark on their enlightening conversation, the harsh realities of West Virginia's battle with the opioid epidemic come to the forefront, revealing the innocent victims caught in the crossfire. With heartfelt passion, Attorney Steve New reflects on his experience representing NAS cases, powerfully emphasizing, "There is no more innocent victim in this than addicted babies." Within this contemplation, he eloquently sheds light on the intricate challenges in substantiating these highly specialized cases and addresses the heart-wrenching scarcity of support for afflicted families. As the conversation deepens, Attorney Steve New provides insights into the recent proceedings, maintaining an unwavering hope for the appeal despite the disheartening ruling by the West Virginia Mass Litigation Panel, firmly believing that "no cause is truly lost" as he knows that ultimately, "some court is going to hear the voices of these children and care."  Transitioning the conversation, Mirena prompts Attorney Steve New to delve into the origins of his involvement in the Southern Regional Jail cases in West Virginia. He shares that his profound connection with these cases began in early 2022, ignited by the impactful stories he came across, with the tragic case of Quantez Burks standing out prominently among them. Deeply appalled by the systemic issues at hand, Attorney Steve New, alongside his dedicated team, embarked on a relentless mission for justice, filing a lawsuit and subsequently pursuing a class certification on behalf of an astonishing 17,000 inmates. Their work is a testament to the pervasive challenges of overcrowding, understaffing, and deferred maintenance within West Virginia's correctional system, symbolizing a collective effort to rectify these injustices and provide relief for countless individuals who have suffered in silence.  As the conversation concludes, Attorney Steve New unveils his broader vision to Mirena, reaching beyond West Virginia to ignite a nationwide movement for prison reform with the hope of "turning the tide" on harsh conditions and inspiring a change in public sentiment. He emphasizes that the key to achieving this lies in sharing the stories of those affected and fostering collaboration among like-minded individuals and groups. With eager anticipation for the forthcoming October class certification hearing, Mirena extends a heartfelt invitation to all who resonate with the cause to step forward and actively participate in the conversation, ensuring that the vision for change continues to grow.

This week's episode of Parent Tell is a powerful one and discusses one mom's experience with finding out her daughter would be born with some sort of developmental delay and the fight she fights every single day to do what she needs to do for her daughter. Angela's daughter was born with DiGeorge Syndrome, a disorder caused when a small part of chromosome 22 is missing. This deletion results in the poor development of several body systems. Medical problems commonly associated with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome include heart defects, poor immune system function, a cleft palate, complications related to low levels of calcium in the blood, and delayed development with behavioral and emotional problems. The number and severity of symptoms associated with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome vary. However, almost everyone with this syndrome needs treatment from specialists in a variety of fields.Angela's story is powerful, as it showcases exactly what moms are willing to do, and what they go through, in order to be there for their children and give them what they need.Follow Parent Tell on InstagramSupport Parent Tell on PatreonSend Kaila an email with your parenting story at parenttellpod@gmail.com

The WV Uncommonplace Podcast invites listeners to join host JR Sparrow as he interviews inspiring people from all walks of life. In this episode, JR Sparrow interviews Colleen Faul, a wife, mother of two rambunctious toddlers, and published children's book author. Colleen also mentors families with children with special needs, as she has a daughter with a genetic disorder. JR and Collen discuss their unique experiences as parents to children with disabilities, and the trying and sometimes heartbreaking process of dealing with their loved ones' conditions. They discuss their journey towards healing and learning to let go of fear and worry, leaning into prayer and focusing on the positive. They also discuss their respective books, God's Precious Gift: A Special Needs Child, and the importance of spreading awareness and educating the public on recognizing medical events in infants and children. They emphasize that parents need to be their child's biggest voice and to fight for them when medical professionals are dismissive of their concerns. Finally, JR and Colleen direct listeners to their websites to read about their stories and get more information about the topics discussed in this episode. Colleen Keefe Faul is the author of "God's Precious Gift: A Special Needs Child." At 6 months old, Colleen's daughter, Grace,  was diagnosed with Infantile Spasms and Tuberous Sclerosis Complex. Colleen had to learn to become a fierce advocate for her daughter's medical needs, and she now mentors other parents to help them do the same for their children. Her daughter's diagnosis pulled Colleen deeper into her faith, where she found consolation in the form of creativity. She was inspired to write a faith-based children's book for the special needs community that was as much for the parents as it was for the children. Her mission is to help members of the special needs community, their loved ones, and their caretakers find peace and joy in God's Will. https://www.GodsPreciousGift.com/This link is to my author website.
