  • I really want to get a massage. Some autistic people would resist it though because of sensory defensiveness.

  • He won't let us do this all the time, but more and more, we see open doors where we can provide him with therapeutic touch to calm and comfort him.

  • You can pick some up at your local health food store any brand will be fine.

  • The U.S. Department of Justice has handed down an indictment against a former CDC scientist who led research studies that claimed to disprove any link between vaccines and autism.According to government documents, Dr. Poul Thorsen, one of the key researchers in "disproving" any link between vaccines and autism, allegedly defrauded the scientific research community of over one million dollars.
