Guest guest Posted October 16, 2002 Report Share Posted October 16, 2002 OH yes, my 10 yr old autistic does ever since his sister now 5 was born. SOmetimes he doesn't do it though. I've noticed a correlation (I think) when his sensitivities/allergies are up. Our only solution seems to be to keep his diet and indoor allergen levels down. However it is not a perfect correlation. still missing some pieces.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2002 Report Share Posted October 16, 2002 Yes. Samonas and The Listening Program sound therapies took care of most of this for my son. Others have been helped with AIT and Tomatis. Check into the various auditory training. If you need more details, let me know.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Rhoda, I recently attended a seminar in Austin and one of the speakers said that he had heard of children poking at their eyes. He even had even indicated that a few of these children actually poked their eyes out. I wonder if you son pokes at his nose to get to the sinus cavity towards the eyes? The speaker advised that a calcium defiency can cause pain around the eye socket and the children actually get some relief by poking at/around their eye. I personally do not have this issue with my son, so I have not talked to Dr. G about this, but thought I'd share what I had heard on this subject. Good luck, Mindy Sensory issues Long post -- sorry. My son is two and a half, and started eye and nose poking a few months before we went to see Dr. Goldberg in February. His sticks his finger around the eye area (like he's putting pressure around it) and sometimes he puts his finger right into his eye socket. On occasion, he has pushed his finger out against his upper eye lid. He has also poked his nose to the extent that it starts to bleed. He seems to do it mostly when he is in the highchair, during or after a meal. He also does it the odd time when he is sitting in the glider rocker chair watching TV (but not that often). He has done it in his car seat only a few times, and did it a few times on the plane to and from California. The other day he started eye poking in the bathtub when he was floating on top of the water and now he does it with every bath when he starts to float. I know it is because of a sensory issue. I have determined it is pretty much when his feet are not touching the ground. From what I have read, I feel that he is trying to get a sense of where his body is at when he is not firmly rooted on the ground with his feet. I try to keep his hands occupied. In the highchair, I give him plastic rings to chew on in between courses -- I can't feed him all his food at once because he only likes one food in front of him at a time and will pitch the rest. I also have two other kids to attend to, so I can't sit there all through meal time to monitor him. The plastic rings will work about 50% of the time. In the car, I give him a Rubbermaid juice box. He drinks the juice and chews on the hard plastic spout. That works pretty well. One OT told me to try the brushing technique. I did that but it had no effect. Another OT and a Behavioural Therapist came for a joint visit and said to take him out of the highchair for meals. I tried but he's just not ready. His feet don't touch at the little table I have set up. And he gets up and wanders around, wiping his hands on the furniture. He wants to go after his sister's food and she is not on a special diet so her stuff is off limits. I asked about a weighted vest but the therapists said it wouldn't help. They gave me a weighted soft toy to put on his lap while he watches TV or at the table for meals. He hates it and just throws it off. Has anyone had this problem or heard of a solution? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Rhoda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Rhoda, I have the eye poking problem myself at times if I eat too much hot pepper, fried food, or soming thing too dry. I usually can tell if my body is approachin that point, and stop certain food. But if my mom makes too much good food, I decide to take the risk, I usually end up with the need to presure eyes or even poke my eyes as one of the consequences. Your son may not have the same problem, but it does not hurt to examine his diet. Did he eat too much fried food, crackers, or anything very dry, crisby, too much spice or etc. Instead give him more greens veggis, cool fruids, or even alot of plain water and ice.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 I forgot to tell you that I also feel the need to squeeze my nasal bones at same time too. When this happens, I usually drinking some herbal tea to " cool " the body, eat fruits that are " cool " in nature, or just drink a lot of iced cold water or juice. In China, we think there are certain food (hot pepper, deep fried food, tangerine, some spice, and more) raise your body temperature. That is the time you skin may start broke out, your eye may getting red, your temper may start flying easily, your noise may start bleeding, and etc. Good Luck Jin > > Long post -- sorry. > > > > My son is two and a half, and started eye and nose poking a few > months before we went to see Dr. Goldberg in February.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Thanks Jin and Mindy! I will get him tested to see if he has a calcium deficiency (although he drinks lots of Soy milk with extra calcium and Tropicana orange juice with added calcium). I will also try cool drinks when I see him starting to poke. He doesn't eat fried foods or spicy foods, but he may be reacting to dry foods like you mentioned in your other post Jin. Or maybe he is getting too much orange juice. My other OT told me today to try weights on his ankles or shoes when he is sitting in the highchair to see if it helps him.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Most calcium supplements only have a absorption factor of 17 to 20 percent. It has been found the the elder people who live on the Island of Okinawa in Japan, live very long disease free lives. The one single factor that has been found is that these people take coral sand in their diet. Coral sand has a absorption rate of almost 100 percent. You would have to drink gallons of orange juice to receive the amount of calcium that is in one table spoon of coral sand. Coral sand is now showing up in health food stores that stock a wide variety of supplements. wrote: >You mentioned orange juice - OJ gives me a wierd >allergic reaction that makes my eyes ache and lids >feel heavy, my sinuses burn, and make me very sleepy >and fatigued.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 This is now a highly controlled process with all batches of product being subject of strict QA process. No it is not " shavings of coral " but is a fine ground coral that has gone through very involved chemical analysis . While there other tract minerals present in the product, which are also beneficial , but present in very small amounts. This coral sand is tested for heavy metals which have shown not to be in the product. This product is from my understanding is one of the top bio-available source of almost pure calcium, which contains no fillers or binders.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 Yes coral calcium supplements can and in most cases are coral sand. There are just a few companies that are now marketing coral sand, the best way to check how pure the product is can be done by looking at the ingredients listed on the bottle, and the best products should contain at least 95 percent calcium. You will find some products that are listed at 50 to 65 percent and while they still have the high grade of bio-available calcium in them , you just don't receive as much calcium and the more refined products, they still have a much higher amount of available calcium then you would get for products such as tums, or orange juice with calcium added. While the highly refined product is going to cost more, you are getting a lot more calcium in your system quicker that with other supplements. mastin8@... wrote: >Is Coral Sand the same as the Coral Calcium supplements? > >On Thu, 22 May 2003 00:19:39 -0500 Don Schaefer <redwolf@...> writes: > > >>Most calcium supplements only have a absorption factor of 17 to 20 >>percent.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 My daughter started screaming a year ago and we have found that earplugs reduce her screaming significantly.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Hi everyone... Has anyone seen a increase in sensory issues with Pro-Efa? Does anyone have a child that covers their ears in general? Any information? I had taken Jade off of it for a week, mainly because it wasn't available and I began to see a huge increase in the amount of times she covered her ears. In a restaurant's bathroom, she covered her ears when the toilet flushed loudly, she just does it sometimes even if it's one of her favorite character's on tv or songs, she either covers her ears pushes in on her ears. Another sensory realted thing she does is squeezes her little sister's legs, and fingers. She is seven months and I don't believe she's hurting her much, because she rarely cries. Anyone know of a doll or type of squeeze toy I might give her instead of her sister's legs and fingers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Hi , My son is 5 years old and does the same things - he is on 3-4 PROEFAs a day and has been for about 1 1/2 years. He covers his ears especially when some of his favorite tv shows are on - Elmo's introductory songs and several other cartoons that he likes. He is ALWAYS squeezing my hands, fingers and anyone else's that he is close to in the family. His OT said that he was seeking " input " as far as the squeezing goes. The covering of the ears, she said it was varying frequencies, she didn't give me anything in particular to do for these issues. If anyone has any suggestions, I would definitely be interested - he is squeezing my hands hard these days at 5 sorry I didn't have any advice on second what you are saying Phyllis In a message dated 3/5/2006 1:06:38 P.M.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 You can get the stress balls just about anywhere and for under 2 bucks. They come in different sizes and in various colors or printed to look like the planet earth, smiley face etc. Try office supply stores for example. Here's one for example on sale at Staples: http://www.staples.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/StaplesSearch?keyword=stress+ba\ ll & storeId=10001 & catalogId=10051 & langId=-1 & errorUrl=searchnoresults & searchSumUrl\ =searchresultssummary & searchUnsumUrl=searchresults & fromUrl=home (or if you want to spend more -you can buy them at therapy places online) http://www.bindependent.com/cgi-bin/shopper.cgi?preadd=action & key=hyg640 ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Staples has stress balls or you can Goggle the words " stress balls " and it will give you a bunch of web sites but I would try an office supply store first they will be the cheapest as opposed to a therapy store they come in all different shapes and sizes Good Luck Jean Re: [ ] Re: Sensory issues > So the " stress balls " are about what 1 inch in diameter and the child just > squeezes the balls??

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 At Big 5 and other sports stores they have these neat stress/exercise balls that change color when you squeeze them for about $5. My mom was sent there by her PT when she badly broke and sprained her finger. At our store they were up near the front. It might make things more interesting for your child. I have a hard time putting the ball down when I start playing with it! Hers is purple and turns pink with all kinds of neat swirls when you squeeze it. The harder you squeeze the more pink because the outer layer thins out. They made them in green/yellow, blue/green and several other combos.
