125. The Truth Behind Developmental Delays: It's Not Just a Phase
Manage episode 497214304 series 3543179
Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the real root causes of developmental delays that go far beyond what traditional pediatricians and even most early intervention specialists address. He reveals that one in six children face developmental delays, often triggered by what he calls "the perfect storm" - a combination of early life stressors including pregnancy stress and birth interventions. Dr. Ebel explains how children get stuck in "fight or flight" mode instead of growth and development mode, affecting everything from motor skills to speech, behavior, and social development. He emphasizes that developmental delays aren't due to genetics, bad luck, or bad parenting, but rather neurological stress that can be identified and addressed at its root cause.
