Are You on a Waiting List?
It's a proven fact in Autism that those who receive therapy early in their lives have an increased chance of improving symptoms.
So much so that some children can even become “indistinguishable from typical peers.” The University of Connecticut published a study in 2010 that showed that up to 20 percent of students with diagnosed Autism Spectrum Disorder could achieve a clinical recovery by age 7 with intensive, early intervention. This backed up an earlier, 3 year study at UCLA, which found similar results. http://www.autismpartnership.com/recovery-autism The earlier the therapy starts, the better the outcomes.
Just to be clear, improvement is ALWAYS possible, but there's a difference between seeing improvement and a perceived recovery.
Therapy plays a vital role in defining where that line is for children.
Unfortunately, there are tens of thousands of children on therapy waiting lists. The longer a child waits, the less likely he or she is to make that benchmark of “indistinguishable.” Parents, educators and therapists know that having one’s name on a list isn’t going to get that student anywhere, and improvements will not happen until that child is receiving regular, consistent therapy.
So what's a parent to do?
Some parents, simply out of ignorance of their options, painfully accept the fate of their children and hope they'll “grow out of it” or that they'll “learn on their own time.” They may, but more often than not those are the children who “fall through the cracks” and require lifelong care.
There are nearly 4 million births in the United States every year. Current estimates say that about 1 in 68 of those children will have autism. That's approximately 60,000 children with autism per year. It's no wonder that speech therapy services have such a long wait list. Even if money were not an issue, there are quite simply not anywhere near enough therapists to give every child the 40 hours a week recommended to see substantive gains.
For most of the children who do make it to the top of the wait list, they are typically only seen once per week for 30-60 minutes at a time.
This is a drop in a bucket that requires a deluge to really make a difference.
The Gemiini DVM system was developed to give kids an early start in speech therapy, with no limit on the number of children who can receive service. Even for those children who make it to the top of waiting lists, therapists around the world recommend Gemiini to patients to use at home as a supplement to weekly therapy. The parents who follow through with the recommendations see the best results.
Gemiini is available now. If you have a child with autism, or even if you suspect autism, start immediately. You don't need wait for a diagnosis, and don't wait for a spot to open up. Gemiini is affordable, available on demand anywhere in the world, and it is very effective. Gemiini has various video formats and techniques to get students' attention, so even the pickiest viewers can see results. We even have a "High Interest for Haters" format which works phenominally well even with our toughest little customers.
Families throughout the United States, and around the world, have experienced life-changing success with Gemiini. The program has been the difference between hearing "I love you Mom," and nothing but silence.
