SAN ANTONIO - An alternative type of medical treatment is proving to be successful in helping children with autism.
The technique, which combines homeopathy, chiropractic, Chinese and Western medicine, has helped some children so much that theyve been removed from the autism spectrum.
Four-year-old Lake Laird is one of the those children.
Lake suffers from eczema and severe allergies.
On top of that, in January he was diagnosed as mildly autistic.
"Our goal is for our child to be healthy and happy," said Lake's mother, Dana Laird. "As a parent, when you see your child struggling you will do anything to help them; any alternative therapy."
Lake is being treated with a unique treatment called the Nambudripad allergy elimination technique.
"A lot of children with autism, they have a lot of food sensitivities. So if their autism is related to sensitivities and if we reverse the sensitivities, then the child gets better," said Patricia Lew, licensed acupuncturist and NAET practitioner.
