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.
