Autism Intervention - How to Get Started - Part 5
An Autism Intervention Specialist Doctor Explains The 4 Major Categories of Biomedical Autism Treatment: (continued from part 4) Autism Intervention Category # 3 - Detoxification (chelation or cleansing) As you begin to decrease the allergy and inflammation through dietary control, supplementation, etc.
, your child can begin the process of detoxification more effectively.
Detoxification is the process of cleansing toxins out of your body.
Our body generates many chemicals that naturally help do this for us.
The skin, intestines, liver and kidneys are the organ systems responsible for detoxification.
One of the challenges with children on the spectrum is that they commonly have weakened detoxification capacity.
Therefore, aiding their body with this process is critical.
Simple steps can be taken to aide in this process such as Epsom salt baths - 1 to 2 cups per bath tub water 3 to 5 times per week can have a positive effect for some children.
I have commonly seen children become calmer and relaxed with improved sleep, and more awareness of their surroundings with this biomedical autism treatment.
Some parents have used Infra-Red Sauna therapy - which helps a child to sweat - as a way to support natural detoxification, while others have used Methyl-B12 Therapy as a preferred form of biomedical autism treatment.
Chelation therapy or heavy metal detoxification therapy is a termed used to describe detoxification of heavy metal toxins such as mercury, arsenic, and lead.
I have employed the use of a variety of heavy metal detoxifiers over the years with good success for some children.
There are a wide variety of options, but the bottom line of improving the health and cognitive abilities for individuals on the spectrum the role of detoxification therapy is a very important biomedical autism intervention.
Autism Intervention Category #4 - Neurological Healing and Recovery Once your child's body has been cleared of toxins to the best of their ability they can begin the process of neurological healing and recovery.
I use the word recovery because for many children using biomedical autism intervention, this potential is achievable.
Of course, it is difficult to predict which child will fully recover, but my goal is to improve your child's health and optimize their health potential.
Neurological healing involves a number of therapies known to support the brain in injury recovery.
One in particular called Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has shown great promise in aiding this process.
This process of neurological healing is last in my list because in my experience a child will not reach their full potential unless some of the steps in the first 3 stages are implemented first.
However, this does not mean that a therapy such as HBOT could not be implemented in the early stages of biomedical intervention.
In fact, HBOT has a tremendous upside with respects to improving oxygenation concentration in the brain and the reduction of neurological inflammation.
This makes it beneficial in any stage of biomedical intervention.
For some children these treatment steps or phases will at times overlap, with no known dividing line between them.
For example, the use of heavy metal detoxifiers and the concurrent use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment are many times implemented with good success.
