Using NAET as a Treatment for Autism

In November of 1983 in an effort to cure herself of debilitating health conditions, Dr Devi S. Nambudripad developed Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique.

Working on the premise that all health conditions are brought about by allergens, she used a selection of different forms of alternative treatments to reduce or eliminate the allergen thereby removing the illness.

Kinesiology is used to determine the presence of the allergen by a form of muscle testing, if the person is allergic to the item placed on their skin, their muscles are weaker.

Accupuncture or Accupressure is used to resolve the imbalance in the body by removing the energy blockages in the Meridian thereby bringing the body back to a state of homeostasis.

This treatment can and has been used on multiple illnesses brought about by allergens including Autism.

A case study in 2005 with a group of 60 Autistic children, 30 of which were treated with NAET, of the 30 treated, 23 of the children with Autism improved so much that they were able to be rediagnosed and lost their Autistic label and were able to attend mainstream classes in a regular school after receiving 50 treatments for allergen removal in a 12 month period.

It can be used to assist with other health conditions brought on by Autism such as constipation or leaky gut syndrome.

For the severely Autistic child a surrogate can be used to facilitate the treatments whereby, so long as the surrogate is touching the skin of the Autistic child, the accupuncture or accupressure can be performed on the surrogate and the child with Autism will be effectively treated.

After the treatment is performed, the Autistic child will need to be kept away from the allergen for between 24 to 30 hours to allow them to clear it.
This can present a difficulty for parents of a child with Autism who insists on a regimented meal plan and won't eat a varied diet.

Sometimes for more severe or stubborn allergies, the Autistic child may need to go through the same treatment for the same allergen more than once.

Dr Nambudripad has written a book, Say Goodbye To Allergy Related Autism, published in soft cover in 2006 in which she shares detailed reasoning for her theories and case studies from Autistic children who were helped by her allergy removal technique.

Dr Nambudripad holds regular seminars where she trains others in the NAET practice.
There are registered NAET practitioners all around the world.

With so much at stake regarding recovering the child from Autism, this is one treatment that should not be ignored.
