In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the number one challenge facing families today: exhaustion, chronic fatigue, and burnout. He explains the three stages of subluxation—the root cause behind why families feel "wound up and worn out at the same time." Dr. Tony reveals how stress during pregnancy, birth interventions, and sympathetic nervous system dominance create a cascade effect that leads to everything from infant colic to ADHD in children, and adrenal fatigue to autoimmune disorders in parents. Most importantly, he explains how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care can address the root cause rather than just masking symptoms, helping families get their energy, focus, and health back online. This episode provides hope and actionable insights for families struggling with chronic exhaustion and health challenges.-----Links & ResourcesFree Resource: The Roadmap to Chronic Stress & Exhaustion: The 3 Stages of SubluxationEnter the Podcast Giveaway and Win Free Prizes on Facebook or Instagram----Key Topics & Timestamps(00:03:00) - Wound Up and Worn Out: Understanding the Problem(00:05:00) - How Pregnancy and Birth Stress Affect Baby's Nervous System(00:07:00) - Stage One: Sympathetic Dominance and the Vagus Nerve(00:09:00) - Stage Two: Neurological Disorganization and Developmental Delays(00:11:00) - Stage Three: Chronic Health Challenges and System Shutdown(00:12:00) - The Root Cause Solution: Neurologically Focused Chiropractic Care-- 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 breaks down the five key signs that your child's nervous system may be stuck in fight or flight mode. He explains how nervous system dysregulation shows up in the most basic life functions—eating, sleeping, breathing, and moving—and why these "neurological soft signs" often get misdiagnosed as food intolerances, allergies, or behavioral issues. Dr. Tony walks parents through what to look for at every age, from infants struggling to latch and soothe, to older kids dealing with anxiety, meltdowns, and sensory challenges. He also shares his top drug-free strategies for calming a dysregulated nervous system, including the power of getting outside, protecting bedtime routines, and the often-overlooked importance of parent co-regulation.-----Links & Resources:Enter the Podcast Giveaway and Win Free Prizes on Facebook or Instagram-----Key Topics & Timestamps(00:06:00) - The Neurological Soft Signs: Where dysregulation shows up first(00:07:00) - The Core Four: Eating, sleeping, breathing, and moving(00:14:00) - Breathing patterns and the gut-brain-immune connection(00:20:00) - Posture, motor tone, and sensory processing red flags(00:23:00) - Emotional Signs: Anxiety, meltdowns, and behavioral challenges(00:25:00) - How to Test For it: The INSiGHT Scans(00:27:00) - Dr. Tony's top tips for calming a dysregulated nervous system(00:30:00) - The Hidden Solution: Co-regulation starts with you-- 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.

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most concerning issues in pediatric healthcare: the unnecessary prescription of antibiotics to children. With 30% of antibiotics prescribed to kids being unnecessary (according to CDC research), Dr. Tony breaks down the real consequences this has on children's long-term health. He explains how antibiotics disrupt the gut microbiome, nervous system, and immune function, leading to increased risks of asthma, allergies, ADHD, and anxiety. Most importantly, he reveals that the majority of ear, sinus, and respiratory infections are viral—not bacterial—meaning antibiotics don't even help. Dr. Tony explores the root cause of these infections (poor nervous system function and drainage), and how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care addresses the actual problem rather than masking symptoms.Key Topics & Timestamps[00:01:00] The shocking truth: 30% of antibiotics prescribed to kids are unnecessary[00:04:00] The pediatrician paradox: 85% agree on wait-and-see, but only 33% follow it[00:06:00] How antibiotics disrupt the gut-brain connection and microbiome[00:08:00] Understanding the vagus nerve: the most important nerve in the body[00:10:00] The root cause revealed: respiratory infections are really a "plumbing problem"[00:12:00] Dr. Tony's personal story: four kids, zero antibiotics, zero ear infections-- 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 reveals why the vagus nerve is the key to unlocking autism healing and recovery. He explains how this critical nerve—controlling digestion, immune function, speech, and social-emotional connection—is often injured during birth trauma, the "moonwalking bear" that conventional medicine overlooks. Dr. Tony demonstrates why children with autism need deeper, foundational nervous system repair through Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care, beyond surface-level interventions like breathing exercises or supplements alone. Packed with neuroscience and practical insights, this episode provides hope and actionable steps for families seeking transformational healing.-----Links & ResourcesTake advantage of the Black Friday sale and get the full autism summit for $29HERE-----Key Timestamps:(6:00) Fight or Flight: A Simple Way to Understand the Vagus Nerve(12:00) The Most Important Nerve for Your Child’s Healing and Regulation(14:00) Birth Stress: The Missing Piece Most Parents Aren’t Told About(17:00) How the Vagus Nerve Impacts Sensory Processing and Communication(26:00) Practical Ways to Help Activate and Support the Vagus Nerve(38:00) How INSiGHT Scans Reveal Vagus Nerve and Nervous System Stress(47:00) Real Progress: What Happens When the Vagus Nerve Starts Healing-- 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 groundbreaking conversation, Dr. Tony Ebel sits down with Dr. Dana Johnson, co-founder of the Spellers Method and a leading expert on whole-body apraxia. Dr. Johnson shares her transformative journey from traditional sensory integration therapy to discovering the missing piece: the connection between intention and motor execution. This episode explores how whole body apraxia—the breakdown in our ability to sequence, plan, and execute movement—is the foundational issue underlying challenges in autism, including meltdowns, speech delays, and behavioral dysregulation. The doctors discuss why addressing motor planning must come before gut protocols or behavioral interventions, and how the "perfect storm" of maternal stress, birth trauma, and toxins disrupts early neuromotor development.-----Links & Resources:Follow Dr. Dana Johnson on socials:IG: @drdanajohnsonYouTube: @drdanajohnsonX: @drdanajohnsonFB: Dana Johnson-----Key Topics & Timestamps[00:06:00] How non-speaking communicators revealed the missing connection between intention and action[00:14:00] Why everyone focuses on gut-brain connection instead of motor-brain connection[00:18:00] The Three Stages - From hyperactive "raging bull" to clumsy "drunken bull" to complete shutdown and exhaustion[00:21:00] The Perfect Storm - Maternal distress, birth trauma, and toxins as the three-part storm disrupting neuromotor development[00:29:00] Why watching a child move from car to clinic reveals everything about their motor planning[00:42:00] The three stages of nervous system dysregulation in severe cases[00:54:00] The 90-Day Pause - When to stop all other interventions to clear neurological space for healing[00:59:00] Powerful story of an adult client and his mother becoming comfortable together for the first time-- 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.
