Homoeopathic approach in autism spectrum disorder

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a developmental disorder affecting 1 in 59 children. Homeopathic remedies can cure and reverse this. 

Characterize ASD:

  • Socialization
  • Communication
  • Behavior
  • Sensory Integration

Autism is a complex neurobehavioral condition that includes impairments in social interaction, developmental language, and communication skills combined with rigid repetitive Behaviors. Because of the range of symptoms. This condition is now called autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Causes of Autism:
The exact cause(s) of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is unknown. Many theories attempt at justifying different causes of ASD (autism spectrum disorder). What seems to be accurate is that in a lot of children. What should be working in unison within the body is no longer doing so.

It’s complete biological disarray. Which at times, creates an enormous amount of pain. The result is a block of receptive and expressive cognition noticed between the age of one to two and a half. At that point, a state of complete biological disorganization has occurred.

Why are Parents automatically attracted to diet – for autism spectrum disorder?
The reason why people are automatically attracted to diet for autism is that. It provides an instinctual first line of defense. But the fungal matter, bacterial, viral thing.  And parasites that inhabit our bodies adapt to the diet. That is a concept very few aware even though the idea of diet adaptation has been evident for a long time.

1 in 5 children with Autism Spectrum Disorder is on a restrictive diet. The incremental withdrawal of an Elimination Diet begin with :

  • Gluten: contained in Wheat, Rye, and Barley
  • Casein: found in Dairy

Additionally, there are benefits found in:

  • Vitamin C
  • Vitamin B6
  • Omega 3.

Autism spectrum disorder can be diagnosed at any age.

Mechanical Functions:
In some cases, it looks like the first breath taken is not experienced. At times, with proper case taking the mom says her baby didn’t even want to breastfeed. Much like the first breath, it is an essential function and yet it does not happen or equally crucial role. The child stops eating (more on that later). While these don’t automatically mean the child will be on the spectrum, they are strong precursors to it. 

When it comes to autism treatment in homeopathy, discovering the “causes” is not the primary issue, which is not to say that we don’t care. Of course, if one day in the future, we come to isolate a cause that will be great. But I am not holding my breath on this one. Autism is the most complex disorder on the face of the earth right now.

The disease of the central nervous system:
It’s  also a disease. It’s also a musculoskeletal disease. Because a lot of these children have no muscle tone, deficient muscle tone. In terms of the central nervous system. A lot of children have epilepsy. For example, or epileptic seizures or seizures. So it’s a disease of the central nervous system as well potentially.

The disease of the gastro intestinal system:
It is also a disease or a gastrointestinal disease. Because so much so many children are affected in the gut. It is also an immune system disease. Because most of these children have repeated ear infection or they get colds twice a month. This an immune deficiency and sometimes does the opposite. Sometimes there is an immune hyper reaction.

In terms of reception, it is also a disease of senses the special senses are affected. The child cannot hear certain sounds or acutely understand. That creates pain and discomfort.

Emotional disease:
It’s also a mental disease because they’re very aggressive. That’s probably well over 50 percent. Or completely passive, a child is supposed not to be happy when another child takes the toy. You know it’s another junk for them they won’t react. So a lot of systems are affected. And most of the time. It’s infrequent for an illness to affect so many systems at the same time.

So it can be see as a genetic disorder.

Symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder:
Typically, individuals living with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) have deficits in social, emotional, and communication skills coupled with obsessively repetitive behaviors. Or sayings sometimes picked up from books or TV.

They tend to get upset at any change in their daily activities. Routine provides a sense of stability for many individuals. People with ASD (autism spectrum disorder) have different ways of:

  • Learning
  • Playing
  • Socializing
  • Paying attention
  • Understanding the world around them.

Signs of ASD (autism spectrum disorder) are recognizable beginning in early childhood and may increase or decrease with the assistance of support staff, including appropriate modifications throughout their school-age years.

The symptoms of autism are so varied. But a lot of children hit themselves. Some of  significant percentage of children on the spectrum banging their head against a wall. Against the floor against something for hours. They’ve tried everything they could. And the child is just banging his head against a mattress. And they can’t do anything

Affected systems:
Autism often affects the gastrointestinal system. Diarrhea, colic, or constipation are common issues. The central nervous system, seizures are frequent as are migraines or head pains. Also, the low musculus-skeletal method which points to problems of the peripheral nervous system. There are also many censorial problems with smell, hearing, taste, and tactile issues.

The immune system is also frequently either hyper (the child never gets sick even in freezing temperature). Or hypo immune in the form of being infected with colds, ear infection, etc. on around the year basis. It appears as if all the systems that compose the body works together in autism at all — the reaction to this often great restlessness and rage.

Theoretical Causes and Treatments for Autism Spectrum Disorder:
There are several theories about what lead to a steady rise in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnoses. Which has reached alarming rates.

People have different ideas about what causes autism. Some of those ideas are The physiological state of the child’s mother during her pregnancy. Bad Intestinal microbes from increased insecticides in the food chain. Reactions to elements contained in vaccinations, genetic predisposition. Others think their lack of emotional regulation from unstructured or inadequate supports in early development. While any of these can be factors, from my vantage point the weight of that information constitutes at best 10% of the cases. Homeopathy is far more refined to stop at these ideas.

Is autism a genetic disease? Does it start in the womb?
Autism varies so much that it is impossible to tell. As previously mentioned, a large number of spectrum cases seems to have a feeding issue. From day one, either refusal to breastfeeding or with an extreme reaction to the formula. In the form of diarrhea, constipation or abdominal cramps aka colics. But autism is a spectrum, so the presentation is often very varied.

Early Development:
Some children usually develop 100% as long as they start re-achieving the year or two. By taking the detailed history, though, the notion that all were fine until it is visible. For example, a lot of children on the spectrum most commonly have had a lot of ear infections. Or a lot of coughs, colds, bronchial issues before the age of two.

It is not uncommon to hear that the child was affected by vaccines. The ear infections and cold are often precursors to regression.

Mystery Remains:
Though the causes remain a mystery Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) typically get treated with Anti-Seizure and Anti-Psychotic Pharmaceuticals, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech/Language Classes. Supplements, antibiotics, and antifungal meds. Homeopathy takes a very different and far more effective approach.

Homeopathy Autism Recovery :

  • Based on Law Of Nature:
    • Like cures like the notion: that a substance that produces similar symptoms in healthy people can treat a disease.
    • Law of minimum: The assumption that the smallest dose of medication leads to the most excellent effectiveness.

One significant difference between the standard autism treatment in homeopathy, of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and the homeopathic modality, exists in the understanding of the disease. Autism treatment in Homeopathy has roots. Homeopathy was developed in Germany more than 200 years ago.

Recommended Games for Children with Autism:

  • Sorting and Organizing Games
  • Memory and Matching Games
  • Stacking Objects
  • Stress Balls
  • Tactile Play with Kinetic Sand, Water Tables

Homoeopathic treatment in Autism spectrum disorder:

Homeopathy is based on the theory of similia similibus curanter, i.e. drugs that can cause symptoms in a healthy human being can cure the very same symptoms in a diseased individual. Symptoms of drug provings are recorded and these records are matched with the patient’s symptom picture. When the similar drug is administered it neutralizes the patient’s disease force. The homoeopathic remedies are prepared from natural substances. Also the potency is so low as to not cause any harmful side effects. Such being the case, homoeopathy is ideally suited for children with Autism.
