and Treatment Methods of the
Autistic Syndrome
and AD(H)D
Basics and Practical Experience
by
Dr. med. S. Faraji
This book will soon be availble in English!
This book is supposed to explain the basics of the biomedical therapy of autism and ADD/ADHD and to introduce new therapeutic possibilities from my practice.
Special therapies are explained by first describing or renewing the theoretical background and the necessary basic knowledge for a better understanding. Afterwards abnormalities of the laboratory results of patients from the autistic spectrum of my own practice are presented in diagrams and described in connection with the disease.
Therapeutic measures which have proved to be helpful are explained here as comprehensible as possible with their necessary examinations, from indication to practical application. Main focuses are topics from the orthomolecular medicine and the phytotherapy. At last reports from parents as concerned persons give the reader the chance to perceive the presented therapies as practicable and to recover their own child in the reports.
