28. Breaking Down The 3 Stages of Subluxation in Kids and Their Neurological Impact

In this episode of the Family Practice Podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel and Dr. Matt Hill dive deep into the neurological aspects of chiropractic care. They discuss the responsibility of chiropractors to leverage their understanding of the nervous system to better serve patients. The episode covers the progression of subluxation through three stages: sympathetic dominance, neurological disorganization, and exhaustion. They emphasize the importance of understanding these stages for effective patient care and discuss the clinical implications, including the necessity of tailored care plans and specific adjusting techniques. The conversation is enriched with practical insights, real-life cases, and a call to chiropractors to deepen their understanding and application of chiropractic principles.
