Enzymes/ CEASE therapy anyone?

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone else has tried homeopathic CEASE therapy or Enzyme therapy? My son is rising 4, and is having assessments for ASD. So far the paediatrician at Child Development says that he is not ASD, but CAMHS, who have seen him at the centre with me, and observed him in school think that he is ASD. This has been going on for many months now, and we are getting nowhere as the professionals just cannot agree. All the traits seem to have grown in him since the age of two and are getting worse and worse all the time. I cannot sit by and see him withdraw further from life, with no support from the health professionals, so have decided to try CEASE therapy and Enzyme therapy. I just wondered if any other parents had tried either and what results (if any) you noticed please.

  • Hi - I can understand you finding it hard to accept that autism is incurable, especially as your child appeared not to be showing signs of autistism until he was 2.  Was it a lack of speech which triggered investigations?  I agree with Scorpion's comments.  I know in the end you'll decide for yourslef whether to go ahead with these therapies or other therapies.  I've never heard of the 2 you mention.  Although I think homeopathy just doesn't stack up at all scientifically.  Perhaps it has a psychological effect on some people?   A lot of these "therapies" are pseudo science at best + are not at all cheap. I think the best thing to do is learn all you can about autism + how it affects your child as an individual, also make sure he gets a statement of educational needs + that he gets a school which will help him educationally.  This should help to bring him out of his "shell".  I know this isn't what you want to hear.  You're minded to move heaven + earth to find a cure.  No-one has.  Ever.  Sorry to be so blunt, but it's true.  What you can do is what Scorpion + I + other posters may say when they respond.  That is that you can help your child enormously to fulfill his potential.  It is not the end of the world to be diagnosed with autism.  Concentrate on what's proven to work.  In that way you'll see a difference.Smile
