Autism

Parents from around the world have helped their autistic children move along the path to wellness. Using the programs developed by The Institutes, children diagnosed with autism have been able to improve function and, in many cases, perform at peer level-and above.

The Institutes offers a comprehensive program that focuses on neurological growth and development. Our goal is intellectual, physical, physiological, and social growth towards excellence for each child.

The best way for parents to learn about The Institutes program is to attend the What To Do About Your Brain-Injured Child Course. This is a five-day intensive course for the parents of brain-injured children.

The objective of the course is to teach parents about the field of child brain development so that they may use that knowledge to give their children the opportunity to achieve wellness.

"Autism" is not a diagnosis but rather a description of one symptom of a brain-injured child who is usually injured in the cortical and midbrain areas of the brain.

Using symptoms in place of a proper diagnosis often leads to the attempt to treat those symptoms. This does not work.

A proper diagnosis describes where the injury exists in the brain, the degree of the injury to the brain, and the extent of the injury to the brain. To be successful one must treat the brain, where the injury actually exists. The Institutes offers a program of neurological organization that parents carry out at home.

Old-fashioned labels like "autism" are not found in the literature of The Institutes, but rather the term "brain-injured." This refers to the entire spectrum of brain injury from profound coma to mild learning problems and every kind and degree of brain injury in between.
