Dr. Tony Ebel discusses the overlooked impact of birth trauma on children's health. He challenges conventional medical viewpoints that attribute conditions like autism, ADHD, and chronic illness primarily to genetics. Dr. Ebel explains how birth interventions such as forceps, vacuum extraction, and C-sections can cause physical injuries to a baby's brainstem and nervous system, creating lasting neurological dysfunction. He shares personal experiences with his son Oliver and emphasizes that while these medical interventions often save lives, they can also create long-term health challenges through what he calls "sympathetic fight or flight" dominance. Dr. Ebel offers hope by explaining how pediatric chiropractic care focused on the nervous system can identify and address these issues, helping children's nervous systems heal regardless of their age or condition severity.
