The oxygen flowing to our children's brains does far more than keep them alive—it shapes their entire development in ways most parents and even healthcare providers rarely consider. In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Josh Madsen, we uncover the profound connection between proper breathing, brain oxygenation, and neurological development that impacts everything from reading ability to behavioral regulation.Did you know that a baby who strongly lifts their head immediately after birth isn't necessarily showing advanced development, but potentially signaling neurological stress? Or that the popular "milestone relaxation" allowing children not to crawl could rob them of critical brain development? Dr. Madsen shares these insights and more, drawing from his extensive background in functional neurology and clinical practice treating children with developmental challenges._________________________________________________________________________________________About our Guest:Dr. Josh first earned his undergraduate degree in Exercise Science from the University of Northern Iowa before pursuing his Doctor of Chiropractic at Palmer College of Chiropractic.
