176. Q&A | Can Chiropractic Help with OCD & Anxiety?
In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most requested questions: Can chiropractic care help with OCD? He explains how OCD is rooted in a nervous system stuck in 24/7 fight-or-flight mode and breaks down the neuroscience behind it—including the roles of the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and vagus nerve.
Dr. Tony reveals why traditional approaches often miss the mark and how neurologically-focused chiropractic care works from the inside out to calm an overactive nervous system and create a stronger foundation for healing. This episode offers real, drug-free hope to families struggling with OCD and anxiety.
