Class Description:
This course is the consummation of years of accumulated research and experience in treaingt Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and related pathologies.
It will address the possible dysfunctions present in verbal or nonverbal ASD. We will start with a midline/notochord rhythm that can be used to assess ASD, possibly related to Sonic Hedgehog (SHH).
We will review the imprint of fertilization/sperm entrance in the developed body, as well as the important role of the primitive pit in ASD.
We will engage at the macroscopic level, by examining potential dysfunctions of grey and white matter, e.g. cortex, cerebellum, pineal, amygdala, habenula, right fusiform area, arcuate fasciculus, superior temporal sulcus, ependyma layer, cilia, synapses, and numerous other brain structures.
We will use a very light to a slightly heavier touch.
We will also engage with significant microscopic cellular structures in ASD, such as mitochondria, nucleus, microtubules and centrosomes.
We will also work with pathways of photons and biophotons in the body as well as facilitate assessment and treatment with neutrinos and antineutrinos.
We will further employ Nerve Drainage Therapy (NDT), as fluids within certain nerves in ASD can be turbulent. You will be able to successfully use NDT for many other common dysfunctions such as neuropathy or other nerve trauma.
We will finally address remote / "off-body" / entanglement treatment when a child does not want to be touched.
It is important that you review the list of terms (see "Preparation").
Attire/Supplies:
Bring comfortable, loose-fitting clothes. Some of these approaches require touching exposed skin. We encourage you to bring a bath towel, lab clothes, and appropriate undergarments to be comfortable.
Short fingernails are required for some techniques.
Due to the potential chemical sensitivities of your classmates, please refrain from wearing perfumes or oils to class.

Terminology
We have provided a list of terms you need to study before attending this course.
It is important that you be familiar with the following terms/structures and, where applicable, their functions in the body:
Stimming (from “self-stimulation”)
Social Camouflaging
Fawning
Neurotypical / Neurodivergent
ADD (inattention/focus difficulties)
ADHD (Hyperactive/impulsive)
AuDHD (ASD + ADHD)
Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD)
Self-injurious behavior (SIB)
- Anatomical/Physiological Terms
All cranial bones, meninges, and associated structures
Major structures of the brain, including the thalamus, amygdala, hippocampus, brain stem, pons, cerebellum, and pituitary (hypophysis).
Astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, ependyma
Cells of the cerebellum: Purkinje cells, granular cells, basket cells, stellate cells, Golgi cells and interneurons.
Habenula
Cingulate cortex
Superior temporal sulcus (STS)
Intraparietal sulcus (IPS)
Fusiform Face Area (FFA)
Corticospinal tract
Superior Longitudinal Fasciculus (SLF)
Synapses, presynaptic terminal, a synaptic cleft, and a postsynaptic membrane, gap junction. chemical and electrical synapse, action potential, voltage-gated channels.
Synapse neurotransmitters:
- Glutamate: The principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain.
- Aspartate: Another excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter.
- GABA: A major inhibitory neurotransmitter.
- Glycine: A major inhibitory neurotransmitter, mainly in the spinal cord and brainstem.
- Dopamine: Reward, motor control, and emotion.
- Serotonin
- Norepinephrine/Noradrenaline - Epinephrine/Adrenaline: “Fight or flight”
- Histamine: Involved in wakefulness and other functions.
- Acetylcholine: ACh, involved in muscle contraction, learning, and memory.
- Endorphins: Reduce pain and create feelings of euphoria.
- Substance P: Transmits pain signals.
- Cholecystokinin (CCK): Plays a role in digestion and satiety.
- Nitric Oxide: is synthesized on demand and diffuses freely across membranes.
- ATP: A purine that also acts as a neurotransmitter.
Notochord - Neural plate
DNA methylation
Corona Radiata - Zona Pellucida
Photons and biophotons/Ultra-Weak Photon Emission (UPE)
Neutrino and antineutrino.
- Cell organelles and other structures:
Cell membrane, nuclear membrane, DNA/RNA structure, cytoplasm, nucleus, centriole (centrosome/basal bodies), Golgi apparatus or Golgi complex, ribosome (ribonucleoprotein), Endoplasmic reticulum (ER), mitochondria, granule/vesicle/vacuole, microfilaments (actin filaments), intermediate filaments, microtubules, extracellular matrix (ground substance) (You can use "Silent Waves" Part 6, Chapter 3 as a reference for this topic).
Please review in as many details as you can the structure and functions of the mitochondria.
- Nerves: Please revieew the anatomy of the following peripheral nerves: sciatic nerve, tibial nerve, common and deep fibular (peroneal) nerves.

- These three classes complement AMND:
BR (Brain Reflex) - To integrate neonatal reflexes. For example, autistic children can walk on their toes.
BMTA (Brain Bone Marrow Toxins & Allergy) - To help release environmental toxins.
BACM (Brain Advanced Cranial Meninges) - To release tight meninges often found in ASD.
