There are no bad kids and no purposeless behaviors. Dr. McGowin's mission is to find the WHY behind behaviors that are holding kids back. Sometimes it's chemistry, like nutrient deficiencies or mitochondrial dysfunction. Sometimes it's oral restrictions and breathing challenges. Sometimes it's retained primitive reflexes. Maybe a combination of multiple factors. The point is, when we can identify and address the WHY, rather than covering it up, we can help kids find real healing and recovery.
