Episode Details

What if the way we understand health changes when we stop looking only at symptoms?

In this episode of Thought Atlas, Dr. Dean Howell, a naturopathic doctor and developer of Neurocranial Restructuring (NCR), discusses his decades of clinical experience and his approach to what he describes as structural foundations of health.

Howell shares his personal history with chronic illness, his decision to pursue medicine after initially studying mathematics, and how his work gradually shifted toward what he calls chronic healing rather than chronic treatment.

A major part of the conversation focuses on NCR. Howell explains his understanding of cranial joints, structural asymmetry, and the technique he developed involving balloon-based cranial manipulation alongside hands-on work. He describes what he believes the method can accomplish and why he considers structural alignment important.

The conversation also explores food, carbohydrates, processed foods, parasites, cancer, weight gain and weight loss, and the role Howell believes diet can play in health. These are presented as Howell’s views and clinical claims discussed during the conversation.

We also talk about facial and bodily asymmetry, how previous injuries may affect structure, why Howell cautions people against attempting structural manipulation without appropriate knowledge, and a case he describes involving a patient who had suffered a severe motorcycle accident.

Toward the end, Howell discusses plans for a healing center on his property and a project to produce a baking flour he describes as having no sugar or gluten and being high in fiber.

Connect with Dr. Dean Howell: He gives two websites during the episode: DrDeanHowell.com for his NCR and structural work, and AngelReadings.live for intuition, energy healing, and nutritional guidance.
