Long Island Spectrum Center: Dynamic Listening

From the west:
Take the NORTHERN STATE PKWY EAST to the MANETTO HILL RD exit- EXIT 37- toward WOODBURY / PLAINVIEW. Turn RIGHT onto MANETTO HILL RD and proceed past two shopping centers on your right. Just after the second shopping center, the entrance will be on the right. The building is called the Isalnd Professional Center and it is a three story glass building. We are Suite 106 next to the elevator.

		[ Overview ] [ Understanding The Physiology ] [ Supporting Research ] [ More Published Studies ] [ Supporting Medical Studies ] OVERVIEW Based on the current research, neurodevelopment disorders that include; ADHD, speech delays, sensory processing disorder, PDD-nos, Asperger's Syndrome and Autism, share a common bond that is dysfunction within the brain. This brain dysfunction is joined by dysfunction within other body systems. THIS IS NOT A MENTAL DISORDER! All together, the sum of a multi-system breakdown shows up in a child in a variety of ways. These are some of the physical problems that are identified in the peer-reviewed literature and show up in my patients every day: Nutritional Abnormalities Picky Eaters Vitamin/Mineral Deficiencies Fatty Acid Imbalances Amino Acid Imbalances 'Allergic' To Certain Foods Too Many Carbohydrates Sensory Processing Disorder Attention And Focus Issues Sensory 'STIMS' Inability To Sit Still Sensitivity To Sound, Light, Touch Or Motion Gastrointestinal Dysfunction Diarrhea/Constipation Dysbiosis (Yeast, Bad Bacteria, Parasites, Virus...) Maldigestion & Malabsorption Colitis Inflammation Body And Brain Elevated ESR/CRP Microglial Activation Impaired Detoxification Methylation Defects Sulfation Defects Cysteine Deficiency Glutathione Deficiency (GSH) Mitochondrial Dysfunction Elevated Oxidative Stress Markers Abnormal Ammonia, Lactic Acid, Pyruvate Acid Low Carnitine/coq10 LEVELS Oxidative Stress More Free Radicals Than The Body Can Mercury, Arsenic, Lead, Aluminum Overload Depletion of Antioxidants, Glutathione, and Metallothionein Immune System Dysregulation Chronic Infections (Visible & Subclinical) Either Prone To Getting Sick Or Do Not Get Sick At All 'Allergic' To Many Things In The Environment Altered Immune Cell Responses Increased Autoimmune Markers If one or more of these things are happening to your child, how would you know? The dramatic rise in the rate of Autism, over 700 % nationwide in the last 10 years, has led us to look at environmental factors that may have combined within particular genetically predisposed individuals to create the problem we know as the Autistic Spectrum. It is the premise within the DAN! (Defeat Autism Now!) Movement, that these underlying biochemical abnormalities are either the cause, or significant contributors to the cause of these disorders. And, by addressing these biochemical abnormalities at the source, that the reversal of Autism may become a reality. Almost all illness results from some combination of environmental effect and genetic predisposition. This in some small way answers the painful question: Why my child? It may be that the same environmental insults do not cause the same illness in children with different genetic; and therefore biochemical, make-up (e.g. one person with exposure to mercury might detoxify it completely; another might be unable to and develop neuropsychiatric problems). Because children on the spectrum have such tremendous biochemical individuality, it is necessary that the interventional and diagnostic approach to them is equally diverse. It is in the vein of these biochemical abnormalities that treatments are tailored: supplementation for amino acids, vitamins, minerals and macronutrients; detoxification for abnormal metabolites and heavy metals and all natural interventions to address the imbalances that result from these abnormalities. Our objective is simple; to REMOVE anything that is offensive to your child's body and ADD anything that they may be deficient in. Because these kids have fragile biochemistry, it is our goal to try and exhaust every natural intervention possible - without using medication. Of course if the situation warrants medical intervention, we consult with some of the best physicians around to get appropriate care.
