Autism and Massage therapy

Hey,


I'm new to this forum. My son is also an autistic kid. We are giving him the best care and treatment. Now he is fifteen years old. A year back, I tried massage therapy sessions on him as per our doctor's advice. At the initial stage, he was uncomfortable with the massages, especially the touches. Then slowly, he began to love the sessions. All thanks are for his therapist. Now he is more flexible than before. I dont know anybody has tried this before. For my child, this was beneficial. Thought of sharing this here.

Thanks!

  • Hey, Thank You!!

    I get more information regarding Autism, and it would help me support my son more and more. And this is the reason that I, too, shared my experience, which allows other parents for their Autistic kids. I would also like to share the massage centre, which would be helpful to others.
