Autism is now an epidemic in the United States. The number of people afflicted is as high as 1 in 150 in some places, and 1 in 500 nationally. The incidence has risen by as much as 1000% in the last 15 to 20 years. This book explores why and, unlike the grim prognosis conventional medicine gives autism, offers effective treatment options and the possibility of a positive outcome via natural medicine (alternative medicine) therapies that can ameliorate or reverse the disorder in many cases. This medical approach is based on treating the individual rather than the diagnostic label, and addressing underlying imbalances rather than concentrating on symptoms. Among the natural medicine therapies featured in this book are biochemical therapy, cranial osteopathy, CranioSacral therapy, heavy metal detoxification, homeopathy, NAET (allergy elimination), nutritional/digestive therapy, and the Tomatis method.
