A Comprehensive Guide to Autism for Tucson Families
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects many families across the United States and the globe. As awareness grows, so does the need for comprehensive information and support. This guide aims to provide families with valuable insights, resources, and treatment options for autism, with a special focus on innovative approaches like MeRT Therapy that are available at Brainwave Neuro Performance Center.
Understanding Autism
Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that affects communication, social interaction, and behavior. It’s important to remember that autism presents differently in each individual, which is why it’s referred to as a spectrum disorder. Early diagnosis and intervention can significantly improve outcomes for children with autism.
Innovative Treatment: MeRT at Brainwave Neuro Performance Center
One groundbreaking treatment option available in Tucson is Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy (MeRT) at the Brainwave Neuro Performance Center. This non-invasive treatment has shown promising results for individuals with autism.
How MeRT Works
MeRT uses a combination of technologies:
- qEEG: This non-invasive brain scan identifies areas of the brain that may be under-active or inhibited. It is also often called “brain mapping.”
- EKG/ECG: To measure your heart’s electrical signals, we use an EKG while performing the qEEG. This helps to provide the most accurate results possible.
- rTMS: After analysis and development of a program specifically tailored to you and your needs, magnetic coils are placed along your scalp to stimulate targeted brain areas.
Benefits of MeRT for Autism
Many families have reported significant improvements in their children after undergoing MeRT treatment, including:
- Enhanced communication skills
- Improved social interaction
- Better emotional regulation
- Increased focus and attention
Visit the MeRT for Autism page on the Brainwave Neuro Performance Center website for more detailed information about how this treatment can benefit individuals with autism.
Funding Options
For families in Arizona, the Empowerment Scholarship Account (ESA) program can be a valuable resource. This program, funded by the Arizona Department of Education, provides education-related funds for qualified children not enrolled in public schools. These funds can be used for various therapies and educational supports, potentially including MeRT treatment.
