In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel dives deep into how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care can transform quality of life for children and adults with Down Syndrome. He explains the unique neurological patterns these patients present—including atlantoaxial instability, hypertonicity in transition zones, and core exhaustion—and shares how gentle, scan-guided adjustments help improve regulation, sleep, digestion, motor function, and overall engagement with life. Dr. Tony emphasizes that while chiropractic doesn't treat or cure Down Syndrome, it supports the nervous system to function optimally, leading to remarkable improvements in daily wellbeing.
