Autism is a pervasive developmental disorder that is marked by the presence of impaired social interaction, communication, and restricted interests. With a growing number of affected children,
effective autism treatment has become more and more important.
Children with Autism may have a range of behavioral symptoms including hyperactivity, short attention span, impulsivity, aggressiveness, self-injurious behavior and temper tantrums. They may show unusual responses to sensory stimuli as observed by a lack of response to pain or a hypersensitivity to particular sounds. In addition, children with Autism often have unusual eating and sleeping habits and are described as being either agitated and irritable or aloof and detached.

from autism.
