Summary
Autism is an intriguing and challenging childhood developmental disorder. It has a
varied and complex presentation. Every child is uniquely different. This renders the
homeopathic study and treatment of these children fascinating and rewarding. Autism
is a neurodevelopment disorder of childhood onset that presents with the core triad
of qualitative impairment in reciprocal social interaction, qualitative impairment
in communication and stereotyped behaviour patterns. I present here a case study of
a child to demonstrate the unique approach of homeopathy for autism and its effectiveness.
I have also tried through this case study to draw attention to certain unexplored
aspects of this disorder.
