This is a link about it and the man who started it. [|www.upledger.com/content.asp?id=26]Here are some articles I found on it working for students with ASD: [|www.autism-world.com/.../how-craniosacral-therapycst-works-for-a..] and [|www.healing-arts.org/children/craniosacral.htm]

Another helpful resource is, a series of Balance, Auditory, Visual, Exercises for the brain to help many types of children. You can watch this video to see it in action: @http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mbQv34Zs-w Also, here is the link to the website for more information:[|www.bal-a-vis-x.com/About.htm] We heard about it through my daughter's Physical Therapist to help her with her Auditory Processing issues. There are books written about stories of success with children of various disabilities and brain disorders being helped by it. It is also fun for the kids.

 * Music Therapy and Brain Builer Computer Game**

Here is a video I found on it: [|www.youtube.com/watch?v=][|JpKcbh7][|_710] Here are some other articles I found about it for treatment of ASD: [|www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/02/080226185848.htm] and [|www.mpccares.com/autism-neurofeedback-treatment.htm] I know it is helping my daughter with her auditory processing issues. It's a gradual thing, but I think if we could do it more often, that would help, but it is very expensive and our insurance, as most, won't cover non-traditional treatments. They might, however, for ASD patients.

 * Recommended book:**

Check out the book on neuroplasticity by Norman Doidge called __The Brain that Changes Itself__. It talks about many different types of brain disorders or difficulties, including strokes and various ways that people have overcome them through changing the brain's pathways and making new ones. I learned about this book because of the problems my daughter was having in school and my aunt, who teaches at a special school for students with LD called Arrowsmith School, told me about it. Check out their website and watch some of the videos about what they do there. It's very interesting. [|www.arrowsmithschool.org/learningdysfunctions.htm]
