Biomedical Interventions for Autism and other Developmental Disabilities

Individuals who are challenged with autism want to express themselves, interact with the world and enjoy life! Medical and behavioral challenges often impede these goals. Discovering the underlying imbalances requires time, patience, labs, multiple exams and detailed sessions. Dr. Janet is passionate and persistent about finding answers that can lead to life-changing outcomes.

BIOMEDICAL INTERVENTIONS were developed by physicians and researchers and have a proven record of being effective. Biomedical intervention is also known as functional medicine and is just another way of saying “proper health care.” Each individual is evaluated and recommendations made for their specific needs.

GASTROINTESTINAL ISSUES:

The foundation for good health is our gut! Function can be improved by limiting sugar, avoid gluten and dairy and adding dietary supplements. Other special diets may be helpful, but gluten free/dairy free is a great place to start.

INFECTION CONTROL:

The immune system of individuals on the autism spectrum is often under-working or out of balance. Anti-infection protocols will help with bacteria, parasites, yeast and/or viral issues which affect behaviors.

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXINS:

The ultimate goal of the biomedical interventions is to remove toxins and repair damage that has been done. Clinical lab tests set the baseline for treatments which may include chelations, detoxifications, methylation or homeopathy.

NEUROLOGICAL HEALING:

Neurodevelopmental therapies are a key factor in achieving your or your child’s greatest potential. Sensory processing therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, ionic foot baths, sound therapy, hydrotherapy, neurofeedback, applied behavior analysis are among the recommendations that may be made.
