Tic Talk
Common Misconceptions, Natural Approaches, and Real Conversations About Tic Disorders
Why do tics often overlap with anxiety, OCD tendencies, sensory sensitivities, sleep challenges, gut issues, or emotional dysregulation?
Why does it feel like important pieces of the puzzle are missing?
You’re not alone.
In Tic Talk, Dr. Piper Gibson shares the perspective that changed everything for her own family and ultimately inspired the work we do today at Regenerating Health.
Written by a mother, researcher, and functional medicine practitioner, this book introduces parents to a broader way of understanding the patterns that may be contributing to neurological and nervous system symptoms in children.
Whether you’re newly navigating a diagnosis or have been searching for answers for years, Tic Talk offers a thoughtful starting point for parents who want to better understand what may be happening underneath the surface.
Because when symptoms don't fully make sense, parents deserve more than reassurance.
They deserve understanding.
Who Is This Book For?
Tic Talk was written for parents who feel like they have been searching for answers but still don't have a clear understanding of the bigger picture.
This book may be especially helpful if your child experiences:
- motor or vocal tics
- Tourette Syndrome
- anxiety or OCD tendencies
- sensory sensitivities
- emotional dysregulation
- sleep challenges
- digestive concerns
- symptom flare-ups after illness or stress
- symptoms that seem connected but are rarely discussed together
Many parents tell us they have spent months—or even years—researching, trying different therapies, changing diets, experimenting with supplements, or visiting multiple specialists while still feeling like important pieces of the puzzle are missing.
Tic Talk was written to help parents begin asking different questions.
Rather than focusing on symptoms in isolation, the book explores common misconceptions about tic disorders and introduces a broader way of thinking about the patterns that may be contributing to nervous system symptoms in children.
Whether you are newly navigating a diagnosis or have been searching for answers for years, this book offers a thoughtful starting point for parents who want to better understand what may be happening underneath the surface.

Wondering How These Concepts Apply To Your Child?
This book was written to help parents begin seeing the bigger picture behind tics, Tourette Syndrome, and related symptoms.
But every child has a unique history. A unique collection of symptoms. And a unique story.
If you’ve finished the book and are wondering how these patterns may relate to your own child, we invite you to schedule a complimentary case review.
What If There Is More To The Story?
What If There Is
More To The Story?
During the consultation, our team will:
- review your child’s symptom history
- discuss symptom patterns and overlap
- answer your questions
- help identify areas that may warrant deeper investigation
- explain what next steps could look like for your family
Many parents tell us they leave the conversation feeling less overwhelmed and with a much clearer understanding of what may be contributing underneath the surface.
