Reversing Austism (Part 1)
The incidence of autism spectrum disorders (A.S.D.s) in children of the western world has now reached epidemic proportions. Whilst such numbers of A.S.D.-affected children are new, the homoeopathic remedies used to treat them are not. This article explores in detail the homoeopathic treatment by polycrest remedies of three children with autism. It includes notes on treatment methodology and parent statements. Also presented are the keynote symptoms of eight smaller cases that have responded equally well to common remedies.

Reversing Autism (Part 2)
Autism is a common term for a number of overlapping syndromes. It has no standard or universally accepted form of treatment, and parents and practitioners alike have access to numerous therapies in trying to improve a child’s autism spectrum disorder (A.S.D.). The use of these other therapies has significant implications for homoeopathic treatment. Some approaches, such as dietary changes, can be combined relatively easily with homoeopathy; others, such as chelation or neuroleptic drugs, can make homoeopathic prescribing almost impossible. If homoeopaths wish to effectively help the A.S.D.-affected children who increasingly present at their clinics, it is important to be familiar with these other competing and often antagonistic strategies and the impact they may have on their homeopathic treatment.
