Autism Transformed
I GOT MY SON BACK!
“My son is doing well. When I came upon your program earlier this year, he was undergoing a neuropsychological evaluation, as he struggled so much with hyperactivity, inability to focus, mood swings, uncontrollable episodes of anger, and even some depression. His mood and his behavior are so much better and he is a happier child overall since starting the Transforming Autism Program. He is not having the challenges that he had before. In fact, when he returned to school last April, he did amazingly well for the remainder of the school year, and without needing his prescribed Ritalin at all (and he continues to no longer need the medication!). We did have some bumps here and there, but he came through and kept getting better. He then went on to become a model student in his class and his daily reports from the teacher were always very positive. We are now really looking forward to the new school year starting. I am very grateful that I discovered your program and gave it a try; in a sense, I feel like I got my son back! JS, Massachusetts

HE'S PARTICIPATING
“In general, his anxiety has decreased. Getting him to use the restroom at all was a journey of a couple of years. He was only comfortable doing it in our house. We felt a little lost because you really can’t do much when your child won’t go to the bathroom outside of the house. Since starting the protocol his ritualized behavior around going to the bathroom faded; he doesn’t do it at all. He just goes to the restroom. If we’re out somewhere it’s not a big deal. That was a giant stressor on our family. That’s been such a huge relief.
Others have noticed: ‘He’s really participating (instead of freezing and tensing up), seems more carefree, singing, dancing.’ His speech therapist says ‘He’s increased his use of spontaneous conversation, has inflection in his voice, making comments that are relevant.’ His speech goals keep changing since he is improving rapidly.

FROM SHY TO SOCIAL BUTTERFLY
“Puberty hit and he started being really moody, having meltdowns, was obsessive about things, anxiety level through the roof, having a hard time sleeping, sometimes going to sleep at 3 or 4 in the morning. It was exhausting everyone. I started the protocol and what a difference it made – pretty quick. Within a couple of weeks I could see a huge difference. He started to sleep a lot earlier without any of the fuss. His OCD behaviors were minimized, almost non-existent. His anxiety level and moodiness has really diminished. He was constipated and is now having 3-4 bowel movements a day without any problems. He’s trying all kinds of new foods. Socially it was like someone opened this little box and he came out of it. He tells jokes, wants to have friends, dances at parties. He went from “I’m shy, I want to be behind you, I don’t want to talk to anybody” to a social butterfly.” LM, California

hAPPIER, MORE ALIVE
“My daughter is taking more care of herself, more pride in her appearance, is a lot more considerate of my feelings, thoughtful, and appropriately apologetic. For the first time in her life, we can visibly see the whites of her nails; she isn't biting them. Sleep has decreased from 11 hours a night, to about 6 hours (a good thing). Her eyes look more alive; she seems happier; she is getting her sparkle back. AW, UK
—RA, woman age 21
Social Interaction, Speech
“It has been only a month since we started working with Luminara and I could see lots of nice progress in my 6 year-old son in all areas: firstly his health and immunity, he recovered a lot faster from his fever and nasty cough last week compared with previous episodes. My son also started to show social interaction with his school friends and his speech is also picking up nicely. His stimming behavior is still there but has greatly reduced and most remarkable progress is his learning ability, he can now focus and pay attention to what he is learning. C.H. Johor, W Malaysia”
—JL, boy age 6
improved sleep
“He was actually able sit still and watch TV instead of constantly moving. Sleep improved – from going to bed at 1 or 2am to going to bed as early as 7.30pm and sleeping all through the night. We are very hopeful. M I, Texas
—EI, boy age 12
Attentive and Expressive
“He's talking about how it feels to be free and be his true self, have a voice, how his body limits him, all the things he wants to do. He's becoming much more fluent with the letter board. He's very happy in the more stimulating, educational environment. He can sit for 3 hrs (amazing), sits and absorbs. BH, Pennsylvania
—Derek, young man age 23
Calm and Speech
“After his first session, we noticed his aggressiveness and shouting back at us when irritated or angry has come down a bit. Also, his therapist informed us that his vocalization is much clearer and better.” LM, Bangalore, India
—DK, boy age 5
Less Obsession
“After 4 sessions he is continuing to do well. He is much calmer and his nervous system seems to be resetting-meaning that he is not in a constant state of flight/fight. His OCD behavior has also decreased. While he does sometimes still get stuck in a repeating pattern, it occurs less frequently and the intensity is also lessened. He can often be redirected after a few minutes. This is a huge improvement. He seems to be happier overall and more at peace. JS, Woodmere, NY”
— JS, young man age 23
Engagement, Attention, Peace, Presence
“Since the session, he has been more calm, at peace and present. He's able to sit and relax. He could not previously and was always on the move even when painfully tired. He is more engaging—which is huge. Fine motor skills are improving; he tried blowing (a dandelion) and was able to for the first time. He pays more attention to communication directed at him. He also followed directions without my presence in the room (I was able to sneak a peak). The peace and presence are the best changes since the session. CS, California”
—AS, boy age 3
Speech, Engagement
“This report came back from a Mom who was replaying her son’s NMT session file: “Amazing surge in speech again, drawing, and playing music like he used to…” DK, New York, NY”
—DK, boy age 4
Non-verbal to Singing
“After only 1 session he arrived home from theatre practice and his aide reported: “He was singing!” DH, Coatesville, PA”
—DH, young man age 23
Improved Behaviors, Confidence
“I feel like I'm getting my precious little boy back, and he is so much happier!!! I just can't thank you enough for all you are doing. We have done COUNTLESS amounts of therapy have spent close to $80,000.00 and I have never seen results like we are seeing since we started NMT. I keep getting feedback like below, I could just cry with gratitude! The teacher reported: “He has been doing so well. So much so that we haven't really had the need to use his behavior chart in weeks! He has been working very hard and his confidence is starting to grow. He's starting to raise his hand a lot more now during whole group lessons!” MP, Stamford, CT”
—BP, boy age 6 ½
Global Improvements, Positive Feedback
“Luminara is simply amazing. I feel blessed to have found her and have her use her amazing skills to heal my son. The overwhelming amount of positive feedback from his teacher, bus driver, and family members has been exciting because they are seeing the exact same improvements as we are. So much progress has been made as she peels the layers off and gets to the heart of what needs to be healed. I feel confident in her treatment plan for him and I'm extremely excited for his future!” RM, Las Cruces, NM”
— BM, boy age 7
Happy, Engaged, Loving, Peaceful
“After his first session, we noticed quite a few differences. First of all he seems so much happier! I see the light again in his eyes and he smiles big smiles almost all the time! He is definitely more aware, receptive, and engaged. He’s being much more vocal. He seems to be comprehending more of what is being said. I've seen him trying to eat with his spoon a couple of times. He is not running anymore when his younger brother comes into the room. He and his older brother seem to be more peaceful. A few hours after our first session with Luminara, he hugged his older brother and kissed him on the back when he came home from school, which was something very unusual and surprising. JN, Fort Collins, CO”
—NK, boy age 6
Speech, Digestive Improvements
“After 3 sessions he is trying to talk more and his words sound more clear than before. His sentences are getting longer. He surprised me the other day when he said, “I-want-some-water-to-drink please.” He pauses after each word like he's trying so hard to speak. I was so happy as I had never heard him say that before. He surprises us with new words and new things like counting to 30, saying his ABCs, and I am now trying to teach him sight words etc. He is also holding his pencil much better and his tracing has actually improved. He has bowel movements almost every day now and he is not bloated and gassy like before. He is potty trained and just goes to the bathroom when he needs to. I only have him wear diapers at night because he drinks lots of water before he sleeps. AA, Apple Valley, CA”
—AA, boy age 6 ½
Speech, Interest, Engagement
“Her moods are regulated, she is so much happier throughout the day, her tantrums are much shorter and occurring only 3 days a week, she has only hit herself twice, and she doesn't throw her body onto the ground. She is understanding how to share (toys, books, take turns, etc.) and does it naturally sometimes (initiates), she does not avoid the TV anymore, she only spends four hours a day in her “office” [a confined space in the stairwell] (vs. 10-12 before) and she has changed its location to the other stairwell (close to the bathroom and living areas) so she can interact with us more. She is showing new interest in household tasks (changing sheets on beds, wiping up spills), and the greatest change has been in speech! She went through about a 7 week period where she really didn't say much because of collecting saliva. While that ended a month ago, she really didn't become vocal again until recently. She “talks” every day now. Most of the words are not English, but she is trying every day. And she sings happy songs again! We can actually understand most of the words in her songs because they are songs I teach them for school. I guess it's safe to say she is showing a lot of improvement. We have a way to go, but I'm thankful to see so much change in a short amount of time! LW, Creedmore, NC”

Improved Focus, Memory, Anxiety and More
– Asperger's Syndrome and Chronic TMJ Pain My 19 year old son was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome when he was 18. In looking for treatments for him, I eventually found Luminara. Through NMT, she has helped him quickly eliminate toxins, with leaky-gut and brain repair, indicate good supplements including homeopathic remedies (through supplement testing), and correct negative emotions and beliefs about himself. As a result, he is much healthier, his memory and focus have improved, has much less anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, as well as travels better. His behavior is much improved, including having much fewer outbursts and agitations.
She has also greatly helped him with his TMJ disorder, which has caused chronic pain for at least three years. He had tried acupuncture, chiropractic care, CranioSacral therapy, massage therapy, and pain medications, which all helped to alleviate the pain somewhat, but he still suffered daily from some sort of jaw, neck, or head pain. Luminara was able to eliminate the pain in one session, and any residual pain she is able to quickly resolve. For the first time in years he is without pain, which has made his days much more enjoyable. With NMT he is much better able to face life. I would say he quickly healed in spirit, mind, and body.

Improved Mood, Aggression and Negative Behaviors
Improvement in 25-yr old Autistic Man
– We have searched for answers to our son's Autism for years. We have tried it all! Sensory Integration therapy, Auditory Integration therapy, Speech, OT, Cranial Sacral Therapy, GF/CF diet, prescribed medications, three rounds of Stem Cell treatment, nutritional supplementation. We even swam with the Dolphins!
There was a place for all therapies, but unfortunately, minimal improvement over the years. Upon starting NMT, we noticed immediate improvement in our son. He was in a definite state of depression even though on psychotropic drugs. Since starting NMT, he has done a 360 turn around! From depression to smiling and laughing! He is controlling negative behaviors and has less aggression. We are able to redirect him (no episodes or meltdowns). Our son still has many issues, but this is a good start. I now look forward to upcoming NMT sessions! Thank you for giving us this opportunity!

Improved Gait, Speech, Chewing
Autistic Behavior and Genetic Mutation Salem is a child that was developmentally doing fine until around 18 months when my husband said come look at Salem–he was downstairs spinning and not responding to his name and his gait was off. He was admitted into the hospital for a week and they ran all sorts of tests. He had CK levels and a bunch of abnormal blood work. After Salem got released from the hospital, I started searching the internet; I knew there was something out there to help him. I was searching in the Autism reports and found information about Luminara. We were so blessed that we found her! She worked on everything from his digestion, body flora, gait, neurological issues and repairing of his dystrophin gene mutation and chewing issues. Now Salem's gait is back to normal, his receptive language has improved dramatically, he no longer sleeps bent over due to his gut hurting him, he is chewing food like a normal 3-year old, he is coming to get our attention when he needs help with something, and he is verbal! I highly recommend Luminara's services for your child if you suspect their body is not functioning normally as it should be and if you feel the MD's have nothing more to offer. Believe me, I have been thru this twice and they do not have all the answers; they do not study about natural medicine. I have learned prescription medicine is not the cure-all for everything; it is a cover up! Luminara works with all different levels of a person – emotional, physical, biochemical, energetic – and heals at each level. We have seen such outstanding results with Salem and are so blessed! Thank you so much Luminara for your guidance and healing!

Focus, Gait, Anxiety, Obsessions - Improved
Dramatic Improvements from NMT We have had dramatic improvements as a result of Neuromodulation Technique. My son, who was diagnosed with Mild to Moderate Autism has recently been evaluated as being entirely off the Autistic Spectrum, and he truly is. He is left with some gross motor delays, social immaturity, and some anxiety, sensory, and focus issues. NMT is also being used to treat his Lyme Disease, developmental delays, and allergies. The first NMT treatment was amazing – his six month extreme obsession with bats and Batman became a normal childhood interest after only a 10 minute treatment.
The following treatments resulted in a dramatic lessening of his phobias of dogs, loud noises, etc. He used to sleep 17 hours a day and he was four years old. After the obsessions, the next symptoms to go were the hypersomnolence, fatigue and then the mood swings. We continue to use NMT to assist in working on his gross motor delays and appropriate socialization. During die-off periods from the lyme treatment he is receiving from a Lyme doctor, we do get increased symptoms in some areas. NMT is helping lessen these die-offs significantly.
My son is now average for fine motor skills, he is compliant and sweet, and there is no more self-stimulation at all. He wants to socialize with other children and he is cooperative. His sensory issues are lessened as well. His impulsivity, distractibility, and lack of focus are improved, his gait is improving, and his anxiety is lessened

Speech, Connection, Regulated, Less Being Sick
Yesterday was one month since our first session with Luminara and we would say that from that day change and progress and DIFFERENCES have been making themselves known to us. The changes we see are at every level, interaction is way better and a noticeable increase. Every therapist has commented on the dramatic improvement they've seen. It's a very complex, rich improvement. It's different than ever before: speech, connection, choice of words – started using connective words, like ‘and', said ‘ this and that', clearer pronunciation, singing lyrics, complete songs (has never happened before). He had almost an entire month of being calm, pretty regulated, riding a scooter, bike (never had done that before), being able to be out in the world a little more easily, growing connection with family. He is not as fragile when he gets sick and being sick lasts less time. He hasn't had the nasal congestion we normally hear at night when he is sleeping. His OT came upstairs the other day after working with him for an hour on her own (his aide was sick that day), and she had tears in her eyes because she was so stunned with how well he is doing. Things just feel generally easier from the deep grind that has been our lives for so long! We are feeling SO happy and deeply grateful for everything – thank you so much for your help!
