What Helped Motor Planning Issues?

[Guest guest]

I'm hoping that somebody has experience with using a biomedical treatment to

heal motor planning issues. I'm thinking contributing factors could be yeast,

carnitine deficiency, maybe even heavy metal toxicity. Has anything specific

worked for any of you parents of kids with motor planning issues?

My two year old Wyatt has made tremendous progress in just six months, since

putting him on the SCD plus enzymes (and also doing DIR/Floortime with him). But

his motor planning issues have only improved very slightly and gradually.

He has low tone. I recently started supplementing him with carnitine for that.

He has lots of yeast. I was giving him s. boullardii for that, off and on. I've

just started giving him 1/3 capsule of Candizyme daily for his yeast.

I've never had him tested for heavy metals. I read in the GAPS book that freshly

made juices will work for heavy metal detoxing. This claim is supported by lots

of footnotes which I've not checked. I figure that juicing can't hurt, so when

he is advanced enough on SCD, I plan to get a juicer and give him freshly made

juice every day.

He hasn't had any systematic physical therapy (besides me getting him outside as

much as possible before the winter hit), but I am going to have him start on

physical therapy very soon. I think all of us here have learned that therapy

works faster with biomedical support, so I I'm looking for something to help him

from the inside out at the same time while he gets his therapy.

There is so much experience collected in this forum that I'm hoping somebody

will be able to give me a clue.

Thanks!
