Hi,

My 2 year old daughter is scheduled for evaluation next week but she has many signs of Autism. I have been looking into various possible treatments. One interesting treatment is MeRT. I tried to look for scientific studies on the effectiveness of MeRT with Autism but do not find much reliable information. What do you think about MeRT as a treatment for my daughter? Of course, I will speak to the experts to ensure that it is safe.

Thanks,

https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/study/NCT02758496
Clinical trials finished but data not posted.
Just anecdotal "evidence".
And probably costs a lot, am I right?

I wouldn't trust them.

Thanks for the information. Wow, Brain Treatment Center aggressively pushed MeRT with anecdotal success stories but then does not show any data.
