Abstract/Notes

Background: A four-year-old patient with Autism Spectrum Disorder was presented for care, with parents citing concerns around aggression, hyperactivity and poor social functioning.Management: The patient commenced a course of chiropractic care during which manual adjusting and activator methods were deployed (modified to be age appropriate). His care was subluxation-based and not symptom specific.

Outcomes: Concurrent with a reduction in subluxations, the child’s mother reported a reduction in aggression, destructive behaviour and hyperactivity. This case report indicates that further research into the role of Chiropractic in patients with neurodivergent conditions such as ADHD and ASD is warranted.
