Alternative Cures for Autism
(UK News)Every month, Susan Crisp takes her eight-year-old son, Daniel, for a 15-minute chiropractic treatment.
Daniel has autism and Susan and her husband, Gary, firmly believe that this complementary therapy has been key to the recent improvements they've seen in his development. "His communication has improved tremendously," says Susan.
"He has started putting three or four words together and it is not in response to questions from us.
"It's spontaneous. At one time, if he wanted something out of the fridge he would drag me to it and point. Now he'll say, `Mummy, I want'.
"He doesn't seem so closed in as he once was and is interacting more with his three older sisters."
Television presenter, Quentin Willson, has reported similar success from the treatment for his son, Max.
Indeed, it was after seeing Quentin talking about his son on TV two years ago that Susan first got the idea to try chiropractic for Daniel.
"It was a coincidence that I saw it. I had the TV on and it really caught my eye because there were so many similarities between what he was talking about with his son and Daniel," she remembers.
Worth a try
"It stayed on my mind. I told Gary about it and we felt we should give it a try.
"We thought, `If nothing happens, that's the worst that can happen'.
"At the time, Daniel was walking on his tip-toes and his feet were pointing inwards when he walked - which can be symptoms of autism. I was worried about it and we thought that the chiropractic might be able to help with his posture."
Susan took Daniel to see chiropractor Doug Clark at Dynamic Chiropractic in Sale. Chiropractic is a complementary therapy used to treat problems with joints, bones and muscles and the effects these have on the nervous system.
This is done by a chiropractor, using their hands to make often gentle, specific adjustments to joints, concentrating particularly on the spine, to improve the nervous system and release the body's natural healing ability.
Doug explains: "Daniel demonstrated quite striking spinal stiffness both in the left side of his lower back and his upper neck.
"From a chiropractic point of view, spinal movement problems, typically at the top of the neck, may contribute to distorted nerve function in the central nervous system.
"Whilst I treated Daniel's spine for mechanical problems, which we could be certain would benefit his health, we didn't know at this stage how his communication skills, speech and language might respond to treatment."
"He loves it. Usually when Daniel comes in from school, that's it, he's in and it's really hard to get him to go anywhere, but when I say we are going to see Doug he wants to go.
"Every time Doug has a little chat to ask how Daniel has been getting on. Then Daniel sits in the chair - we call it the Thunderbird chair, and Doug doesn't have to tell him anything now, he knows what to do.
"Daniel loves this but when I've tried to do it at home he won't let me do it, only Doug - they've built up a really lovely relationship.
"But it's not just a matter of Daniel enjoying it. Within four to six weeks we noticed a huge improvement in his condition.
"We took him in June and by August people who don't see him regularly commented that his speech had come on tremendously. He started to initiate sentences - it was a real surprise, to us."
Daniel continues to make excellent progress and is now speaking and engaging with people on a regular basis.
As well as his chiropractic treatment he receives educational help through a specialist school, which includes seeing a speech therapist twice a week.
"I wouldn't want to diminish the input of the other treatments Daniel gets but I think the chiropractic complements this well," Susan adds. "Daniel is improving so much more and so much quicker.
"The chiropractic was like turning a key, opening the door and it all came out of him.
"It's not a cure but it can alleviate some of the difficulties."

Dr. Zach's Comments:
- I first want to emphasize that Chiropractic is not a Cure for Autism. In fact Chiropractic is not a Cure for Anything! Chiropractic is based on the simple principles that your body is designed to function beautifully and when it doesn't function beautifully, something is interfering with your body's ability to do so. Very Often that "something" is what we call in chiropractic Vertebral Subluxation. Vertebral Subluxation interferes with your nerve system (the master controller) of your body.
- That said, Chiropractic is extremely helpful with conditions such as autism because our goal is simple... to optimize function. When we're done with treatment, the child will still have autism, but parents often report (as the news article did above) that the child is able to function better on many levels. When you remove the interference to the nerve system... amazing things can happen.
- The funny thing is, those amazing result are simply a return of your body to normal. You see, each of us have amazing abilities and talents. Unfortunately, often times barriers prevent us from expressing these abilities. Don't let Vertebral Subluxaiton be a barrier keeping you from greatness (or even normalcy for that matter). See your Chiropractor today!
