Enema, Colon Therapy Audio Conference Call
Colon hydrotherapy
Colon hydrotherapy will assist the body in removing toxic
fecal material that is stuck on the colon walls. Also, during a colonic, the body is often able to release toxins from
the liver. You will need to find a therapist that is comfortable working with children. You can also
choose to do home enemas, which are not quite as deep-cleansing as a colonic, but will also be helpful and much less expensive.
You can combine the use of herbal colon cleansers and/or fiber colon cleansers with colon hydrotherapy or enemas. Often,
when the body is naturally detoxifying itself very unpleasant things happen like constipation or rashes. This is one
of the quickest ways to relieve these symptoms. Often Donna Gates, will tell an adult not to even attempt starting the
Body Ecology Diet until they have had a series of colonics.
For home enemas many prefer a metal bucket and catheters
sold at Body Ecology.

Cranial Sacral therapy
One popular alternative therapy for children with autism is Cranial Sacral therapy.
Cranial Sacral therapy is a gentle hands-on approach which helps improve central nervous system function and dissolve the
effects of stress from toxins. It also helps boost the immune system and can be used for a number of infantile
disorders as well as autism. Cranial Sacral Therapy began at the beginning of the 20th century with the work of Dr.
William Sutherland, an osteopathic physician, who developed a treatment method known as Cranial Osteopathy. In 1970, another
osteopathic doctor, John E. Upledger observed a rhythmic movement in the membrane that surrounds the brain and spinal cord
while assisting with surgery. Dr. Upledger's curiosity about this pulse, led him to Dr. Sutherland's treatment methods
and to develop Cranial Sacral therapy. Cranial Sacral Therapy involves using gentle touch to help balance
the cerebrospinal fluid and the membranes and tissues surrounding the spine and brain. A treatment takes about 30-60 minutes
and involves placing the hands on the neck, feet, jaws, and sacrum. Parents who have had their children treated with
Cranial Sacral Therapy often report that the child is more relaxed, able to make better eye contact and is more verbal.
Chiropractors often practice that but some prefer a therapist that is trained in reiki also.
Testimony.......Cranial Sacral therapy was the "icing on the cake" as
for as the overall recovery of our son's autism. His speech was often jumbled and he had a hard time articulating
things. Speech therapists could never give it a label. He made remarkable improvements and our speech therapist
could not believe the gains made in a few short months. My cranial sacral therapist speculates that many autistic
children beat their head because they are trying to self-manipulate their jammed up skull bones.

EFT
Epsom Salt Baths Epsom Salts are made of magnesium sulfate. This salt is readily absorbed through the skin, and each component
will assist the liver in dumping toxins. It also helps move toxins out of the body through the skin. Many of the
kids are deficient in magnesium and these baths also help calm the muscles for a good night sleep. Put 1-2 cups in a
warm bath.
Electric Magnetic Frequency Protection Protect you child from EMF's. Do not allow your children to use a cell-phone or cordless home
phone; unless you have a protective devise that you trust. There are different companies that sell these devices.
Testimony......We've
purchased the Bio-Pro chips. There are several things we've noticed using these. My son used to complain of
headaches and we isolated this to me using the cell phone in the car. My son doesn't seem as addicted to his Nintendo
DS game. My television screen doesn't get dusty.

Homeopathic medicine
LYME disease treatment New evidence has shown
that many autistic children are harboring this. They have not necessarily been bitten by a tic; many speculate that
it's mutated and can be passed along with the common cold. Have your child checked for lyme’s disease; especially
if they have motor tics.

Intervention) program. The program is parent-centered, and, according to the literature, is intended to help lay missing pathways
