About this episode

Dr. Brandon Crawford discusses the intersection of functional neurology and photomedicine, highlighting innovative treatments and foundational health strategies.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Brandon Crawford, a chiropractor with training in functional neurology, discusses his work combining functional neurology with photomedicine/photobiomodulation, describing an early pediatric case where laser use appeared to spur unexpected brain development. He explains why some lasers may worsen symptoms (e.g., seizures) due to beam “hot spots,” wavelength energy, and dosing factors such as frequency and duty cycle, emphasizing that light is “information” and not always about increasing ATP. The conversation highlights foundational health strategies—sunlight, grounding, deuterium-depleted water, cold exposure, and reducing screens/non-native EMFs—sharing a case where these improved a child’s labs and heavy metal burden. Crawford outlines a developmental functional neurology framework (sensory mapping, primitive reflexes, muscle spindle “conversion,” spinal cord/motor neuron involvement) and discusses PANS/PANDAS as autoimmune encephalitis, focusing on neuroimmune imbalance and individualized treatment that may include targeted activation, nuanced photobiomodulation, and regenerative options like extracellular vesicles, VSEL procedures, and patented…
