155. You Can’t Work on the Brain Until You Work on the Body: The Missing Link Behind Speech, Behavior, and Development
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 -- Register for the FREE 'Calming The Sensory Storm' Webinar HERE 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.

154. Q&A: What's the Best Way to Improve Sleep in Children with Autism?
In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses one of the biggest challenges for families with autistic children: sleep difficulties. Rather than offering typical sleep tips, he explores the neurological root causes of sleep disturbances. Dr. Tony explains that children stuck in fight-or-flight mode cannot physically relax enough to fall asleep or achieve restorative sleep. He emphasizes a two-step approach: first, release physical tension from the neurosensory motor system through adjustments and bodywork; second, address gut health through diet and supplements. Clinical data shows 85-90% of patients experience sleep improvements within the first two months of neurologically focused care. The key message: fix the body first, then the gut, and sleep will naturally improve—leading to healing and development.-----Links & Resources:Free article on Food IntoleranceRegister for the FREE 'Calming The Sensory Storm' Webinar HERE-----Key Topics & Timestamps([00:03:00]) - Beyond Sleep Hacks: The Neurological Lens - Why traditional sleep tips aren't enough and understanding nervous system dysfunction as the root cause.([00:08:00]) - The Body Cannot Relax - How physical tension and subluxation keep children stuck in fight-or-flight mode, preventing sleep.([00:13:00]) - The 85-90% Success Rate - Clinical evidence showing sleep improves first with neurologically focused care.([00:18:00]) - How the Gut Disrupts Sleep - Understanding the gut-brain connection and how digestive issues keep children awake at night.([00:23:00]) - The Right Order: Body First, Then Gut - Why addressing physical tension must come before expensive testing and supplement protocols.([00:27:00]) - Real Parenting: Protecting Bedtime - Dr. Tony's personal approach to prioritizing early, consistent sleep schedules over social events.([00:31:00]) - The Melatonin Warning - Why melatonin should be a last resort and the risks of dependency. -- Register for the FREE 'Calming The Sensory Storm' Webinar HERE 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.

153. The Body Keeps Score: You Can’t Regulate What You Haven’t First Repaired
Dr. Tony Ebel reveals the critical difference between nervous system REPAIR and nervous system REGULATION—and why getting the order right changes everything. While tools like breathwork, craniosacral therapy, and neurofeedback are trending, they can't work effectively until foundational trauma is addressed first. He explains how physical, chemical, and emotional stress gets locked into the body through subluxation, creating sympathetic dominance that blocks healing. This episode provides a roadmap for sequencing your healing journey correctly, knowing when you're ready for regulation tools, and why some families need years of foundational chiropractic care before other interventions will stick. If you've tried everything and feel stuck, this is your answer.----Links & ResourcesPrevious episode: Time & Talking Doesn't Heal Trauma..

152. Q&A: Why are Conventional Medical Doctors So Triggered by Chiropractic? Dr. Tony's Response to the Online Bashing
In this powerful Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses the recent wave of anti-chiropractic content flooding social media from conventional medical doctors. Rather than responding with anger, Dr. Tony offers a thoughtful, science-based perspective on why natural, neurologically-focused healthcare is exploding in popularity—and why some in the medical community feel threatened by it.Dr. Tony emphasizes that this isn't about "us versus them," but about giving families effective options. He shares his deep respect for emergency medicine (which saved his son Oliver's life) while making a compelling case for why drug-free, neurological approaches should be the first line of defense for chronic conditions. Throughout the episode, he dismantles common criticisms with updated neuroscience, real-world outcomes, and the principle that being effective matters more than being right.----Links & Resources:Listen to Oliver's Miracles Story Here.----Key Topics & Timestamps[00:01:00] - The Social Media Backlash: Dr. Tony addresses the recent flood of hateful, reactionary posts from MDs targeting chiropractors and natural health[00:03:00] - Straw Man Arguments Exposed: Breaking down how critics misrepresent what neurologically-focused chiropractors actually do [00:11:00] - Being Right vs. Being Effective: The real issue—are doctors focused on protecting their turf or serving families?[00:19:00] - Outcomes Over Opinions: Why we should compare real health results between conventionally-raised kids and those receiving neurological care[00:24:00] - Oliver's Story: Dr. Tony shares his personal gratitude for emergency medicine that saved his son's life[00:31:00] - The Nervous System Revolution: How modern neuroscience confirms what chiropractic has understood for 125+ years[00:38:00] - Medicine Saves Lives, Chiropractic Restores Lives: Defining the proper roles and sequencing of different healthcare approaches[00:42:00] - Understanding Before Criticizing: Why critics who never studied chiropractic can't accurately critique it[00:46:00] - Advice for Parents: How to handle the negativity and stay focused on what works for your family -- Register for the FREE 'Calming The Sensory Storm' Webinar HERE 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.
