HOW WELL HOMEOPATHY WORKS IN AUTISM
While no other system of therapeutics can make a significant difference in the autistic child or adult, Homeopathy shows immense promise. This is because the approach of Homeopathy towards the treatment of any disease, whether as simple as a common cold or as complex as Autism, has a holistic essence.
Instead of a “piecemeal” manner of treatment, Homeopathy considers the entire constitution, physical and mental attributes and qualities of the patient, and then prescribes the remedy most suited to the patient.
Also, the carefully chosen homeopathic remedy works at the deeper Psycho-neuro-endocrine as well as genetic level to bring about a positive change in the autistic individuals.
