Homeopathy has been utilized for hundreds of years and has been proven to help in clinical trials and studies. There is also evidence both clinical and research based that show homeopathy is effective at treating autism in the modern day era as well.
One such research study demonstrated that Autistic Hyperactivity Scores (AHS) improved significantly with homeopathic treatment from a score of 36 down to 14.3. The AHS scale measures autism hyper activity symptoms such as spinning, fidgeting, restlessness, object fixation, etc and ranges from 0-59. The most striking part of the study was that after only one year of homeopathic treatment, nine children have complete reversal of their Childhood Autism Rating Scale scores. Further children in the study had a 43% reduction in sensory symptoms after a year and half of treatment!
