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.
