Felinotherapy for Autism
Animal-assisted therapy for autism is a popular traditional approach to correcting the symptoms of autism spectrum disorder. Animals have a positive effect on the emotional and mental state of a child, helping cope with stress, phobias, antisocial behaviour, and concentration on their own world.
It has been scientifically proven that cats can treat autism. More precisely, they help reduce the manifestations of the disease. When a furry pet appears at home, autistic children experience reduced anxiety and increased empathy. Positive changes are also observed in their behaviour — they become calmer and more balanced. This is why families with children with mental disorders often have cats.
Why cats, and how can cat therapy help with autism?
- Avoiding hypersensitivity. Many children with ASD suffer from it; they may have a negative attitude towards sounds, people, and noise. Large animals that require care and communication can irritate an autistic person. Cats, on the other hand, are calming and unobtrusive.
- Stimulating empathy. According to studies, autistic people are very affectionate towards their pets. Really, feline therapy for autism deepens the sphere of sensations and sensory experience as well as trains emotional perception.
- Reducing aggression and apathy. Extreme behaviour is another characteristic feature of autism. Cat therapy for ASD eliminates the conflict that is constantly present in the inner world of an autistic person, and as a result, the functions of the central nervous system are normalised.
- Elimination of anxiety. Autistic people themselves are not calm; they constantly experience a general state of anxiety, are afraid of the people around them, and do not want to communicate with them. They often have panic attacks, apathy, and outbursts of aggression. Communicating with a furry pet can help with all of those issues.
- Strengthening of family emotional connection. Children become very attached to gentle cats. Spending family time with a pet helps strengthen relationships. We can say that cat therapy for autism unites the child with their family.
The effectiveness of treating autism with cats
This is a good long-term method. It is additional, alternative, and helps support the results of other methods of correcting ASD. There is no point in giving it up, since communication with a beloved pet will definitely benefit an autistic child. But it is important not to create illusions about obtaining impressive results — cat therapy does not cure ASD.
The only way to greatly exceed the effectiveness of feline therapy is to undergo a cellular correction procedure at the Mardaleishvili Medical Center.
All over the world, the stem cell transplantation procedure is used for the therapy of various incurable diseases, including the treatment of childhood autism. The result of such therapy is a solution to the problem of the occurrence of the disease at a deep cellular level. In autism, stem cells replace damaged areas in the brain, which reduces symptoms and stops the development of pathogenesis. Today, this is the most effective treatment for childhood autism spectrum disorder, which many people strive to undergo.
Choose to correct childhood autism with stem cells — only after this will feline therapy be truly effective!
