I don't think there is something specific for hand-flapping, but it can be one of those stims in the general that is helped by improved digestion and nutrition. My older son rocks, or would bang his head. He improved with Peptizyde as well as a med for head pain. You can also consider if there is a visual thing going on. Maybe peripheral vision. Hopefully someone else can comment on this. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She hasn't done the hand flapping. For some it may be related to eyes. I think for some it might be a sensory issue. My daughter does the opposite and is always tensing her muscles. I haven't found information on hand flapping or tensing muscles. My daughter has greatly reduced the tensing at times which makes me belive there is a viral, yeast, immune or something wrong that I continue to look for. I hope you find the answers for your situation. Best Wishes Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is is related to a > nutritional imbalance? Thanks for any suggestions. My son's flapping went away with anti-virals, then came back a few weeks later. Then it went away with B6, then came back a few weeks later. Now it seems to come back when I need to remove a supplement he no longer needs.
