Autism and Chiropractic Care

The Manchester Evening Star published a notable article in its August 2007 issue that described the life changing experience of a boy who was eight years of age and named Daniel. He was said to have gained immense benefits from chiropractic therapy.

Daniel’s parents are of the attribute the remarkable changes in their child to the useful chiropractic sessions that he underwent. They have noted remarkable progress in the way he interacts with other people apart from showcasing unprecedented development in other areas as well.

The mother of the boy has been quoted as saying that Daniel can now make use of a collection of 3 to 4 words without being prompted with queries from them. She has noted that he has started to initiate limited communication from his own side. Before his chiropractic sessions, if he needed something to eat, he would only point at the refrigerator while after a few sessions, he can put together a simple phrase to communicate this need. He is also now able to talk in a better manner with his siblings.

Apart from the above mentioned story, the article also threw light on another similar case involving a TV reporter and his son who was also suffering from autism. This case was documented on television and encouraged Daniel’s mother Susan to also obtain chiropractic treatment. She observed that the reporter’s son had more or less the same problems as her son and benefitted immensely from chiropractic therapy. She had begun to be quite concerned with the slow development showcased by Daniel and wanted to give this alternative treatment a try. Apart from helping with communication problems, she hoped to get help for his bodily stance and the way he carried himself too.

There have been many documented cases in which children suffering from autism have shown dramatic improvements and become normal children after undergoing chiropractic therapy. In a major study consisting of fourteen subjects, twelve out of them completely became autism free. This gives credence to the increasing notion that chiropractic therapy is an effective treatment for this condition. Although it is not a fool proof cure and can show different results for different people, Daniel’s mother has remarked that it can at least help get rid of numerous symptoms associated with the disease ad make the life of an affected child better.
