This training is my life's mission, all the material is evidence-based and aims to give you the tools and context you need to provide the best therapeutic care for autistic children and their families.

Ideally, you are already accustomed to working with autistic people. You know what autism means in everyday life and stress behaviour no longer surprises you. In this course, we dive straight into the practical approach and I don't go into what autism is.

No! If you can watch a video, you can watch all the training material online. You don't need to download or install anything. The online academy can be accessed on a computer, tablet or smartphone.

I worry that I won't have enough time for the training programme.

This is a very valid question. Expect to spend 6 hours a week working on the online course material. This is the time I would recommend spending weekly on developing your clinical practice anyway. If you want to start making a lasting impact on autism, it's important to give yourself time to integrate new skills. Through the programme, you will be able to make great strides in your approach to autism as you will continually be guided through the process. I also make the programme very accessible because I know that a lot of people don't have a lot of time. The master-calls via Zoom can all be downloaded in audio form so that you can listen to them at your leisure while walking, in the car or during another activity. Participants have also told us that the training is addictive, but in a good way, so they automatically take the time to keep working on it.

Scientific research has shown that qigong massage for autism produces positive and lasting results for any child who receives the massage daily over a period of at least 5 months. Behaviour improves by 32%, receptive language control improves and autism becomes less severe. Parental stress (a measure of the difficulties involved in bringing up children) was reduced by 44%. The sense of touch improved by 49%; problems processing sensory information improved by 38%. Children become more affectionate, participate more in family life and are more receptive in class.

21 scientific papers have been published evaluating the effect of qigong massage protocols on children with autism and Down's syndrome. The randomised controlled studies show an improvement in sensory, behavioural and developmental problems. In children with autism, all aspects of autism improve and autism becomes less severe. In children with Down's syndrome, speech and motor skills improve. The full list of publications is accessible here.
