Re: Right brain dysfunction

[Guest guest]

This is interesting.

I have read a book called " Disconnected Kids " by Dr. Melillo that talks about

addressing ASD from a brain balance perspective... mainly that there is in an

imbalance between hemispheres . Check out this site:

I mentioned this to Dr G in my appointment of last week. I mentioned it because

my son has been on Brain Balance integration due to the dysfunctional right side

of the brain. Dr G said these therapies are good but to gain more benefit they

should be done once the immune system is responding better. He called it

remedial therapy.

Please read over this article regarding babies (with ASD) scanned during the

night with fMRI:

It discusses dysfunction in the right brain. My son is right-handed and his

MRI showed asymmetry in the two halves of the brain with a larger left area

(within normal variant). I have often wondered if I taught him to write

left-handed, would it help..?

What is the view of the dominant side of the brain in those with an ASD

diagnosis? Does any dr address this (Dr. G) with immune issues being the

cause?
