Enzymes/ CEASE therapy anyone?

stardust66

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.

  • The other point I'd venture to make Stardust66 is at least consider the environmental impacts on your child.

    I appreciate that you are alarmed by the sudden onset of myriad problems between 2 and 4 years. And I can understand your argument that because it has waited until 2 to show, somehow it seems inapplicable to be from birth.

    Much of the problem for people on the spectrum lies in both social interaction and environmental sensitivity. The social interaction is at early stages and below 2 was probably no more apparent than for any child. But your child is now finding efective communication challenging.

    Stress and worry are collossal issues. Increased sentience means increased problems with processing the sounds, movements, smells and other sensory inputs in a very confusing world.

    Its far from easy but it might be more productive to look at the environmental stresses on the child. Are there factors that could exacerbate this. Are there things that by observation you could identify and at least try to ameliorate?

    It might be sensitivity to clothing, difficulties being touched or handled, certain noises such as domestic appliences.

    The accumulative effect of this sensory onslaught and the frustration of being unable to communicate the reasons is bound to produce very dramatic reactions, and progressive deterioration.

    It is not altogether clear what can be done at that age to ameliorate things, but observation and understanding might have more direct relevance than simply throwing dietary or other supposed remedies at the problem, when the lack of scientific evidence to support effectiveness means, quite frankly, that you might stand as good a chance with ECT!
