JOHANNESBURG – I am a homeopathy student at the University of Johannesburg (UJ), currently doing my master’s research on the effect of individualised homeopathic treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in children aged between 3 and 6 years.

I am looking for participants to take part in this study. The goal of the research is to further our understanding of the role that homeopathy may play in managing ASD.
The study takes place over 12 weeks and consists of four consultations every four weeks at UJ’s Health Training Centre in Doornfontein. Each consultation will consist of a medical history taking, two scales which measure ASD severity and a physical exam. After every consultation each participant will receive a non-toxic homeopathic remedy prescribed according to their individual symptoms and characteristics. Participation in this non-profit research study is free of charge, voluntary and confidential.
