Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) face several challenges due to deficits in social function and communication with distinct patterns of behaviors that can be difficult to manage and even disruptive. Laser and light therapy can be used for transcranial photobiomodulation to enhance mitochondrial activity and ATP synthesis, increasing functional activity and cognition. Listen along as Dr. Rountree and Kristi discuss a 2022 study on ASD and laser therapy, how the treatment was administered, what kind of side effects may occur and what the outcomes were for the ASD patients. Also, learn what steps you can take today to help your autistic child.
