 Hey, What's Up! It’s Tommy. Welcome back to Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Matt Hamilton from Maximum Potential Chiropractic. If Part 1 opened the door to the idea of the “Perfect Storm,” this episode walks you deeper into how the nervous system actually develops, how regression can happen, and why healing often looks messy before it looks miraculous. We talked about real kids, real families, and real progress. Things like a child making eye contact and saying “I love you” for the first time. Kids who were told they would never speak now using communication devices. Kids who could never swim suddenly swimming, hugging mom and dad, and recognizing what their bodies can do. We spent a lot of time breaking down how the brain develops from the bottom up, starting with the brainstem and vagus nerve, then moving into motor skills, immune function, social awareness, emotional regulation, and eventually speech and higher cognition. For me as a dad, this hit hard, because I can clearly see where Wyatt’s regression happened and why rebuilding takes time. We talked honestly about hope without false promises, healing versus masking, and why progress is not a straight line. Sometimes kids calm right down after an adjustment. Sometimes they get dysregulated. That doesn’t mean it’s failing. It often means the nervous system is waking up and reorganizing. Dr. Matt also explained the importance of neurological scans, not guessing, not just talking about the nervous system, but actually measuring it. We covered dyskinesia, disafferentation, dysautonomia, and how those show up on scans like posture, surface EMG, thermal imaging, and HRV. What stood out most to me was this idea: miracles don’t always look like sudden speech. Sometimes miracles are peace in the home, no more eloping, fewer meltdowns, better sleep, or a kid who can finally sit in a waiting room. Those moments matter. This episode is about patience, perspective, and community. It’s about dads admitting stress, moms trusting their gut, and families realizing they are not alone in this storm. Key Takeaways Neurodevelopment builds from the bottom up, brainstem first, then motor, immune, social, emotional, and finally speech and cognition.Regression often happens when early nervous system stress never fully resolved.Healing is possible even later in life, but it takes more time when development was disrupted early.The vagus nerve plays a major role in regulation, digestion, immunity, emotional control, and communication.Progress is not linear, sometimes kids look worse before they look better.Dysregulation after care does not always mean failure, it can be part of healing.Measuring the nervous system matters, scans provide accountability and direction.Parent burnout is real, seeing objective progress helps families keep going.Miracles often show up as functional wins, peace, safety, and connection.Community and reflection help families see how far they’ve already come.
