Autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a child communicates, interacts, learns, and experiences the world around them. Every child with autism is unique, with different strengths, abilities, and support needs. With the right guidance and early intervention, children can continue to learn, develop, and participate more confidently in everyday life.
Early Signs of Autism
Recognising developmental markers early helps you address needs when a child's brain is most adaptive.
Some children may show early signs such as:
- Limited eye contact
- Delayed speech and language development
- Difficulty with social interaction
- Repetitive movements or behaviours
- Sensory sensitivities to sounds, touch, or movement
- Preference for fixed routines and predictability
Recognising these signs early can help families access the right support at the right time.
Our SHIVA Protocol for Autism Care
At Gratus Kids, we follow the SHIVA Protocol, a structured Neuro-Ayurvedic Integrative Model developed by Dr. Dheeraj Nellari and Dr. Salu Sasi after more than 15 years of clinical experience. Rather than relying on a single therapy, the SHIVA Protocol brings together Ayurveda and multidisciplinary therapies to support every aspect of a child's development.
Sensory Integration
Many autistic children process sensory information differently. Our programme supports all seven sensory systems using Ayurvedic external therapies alongside structured sensory integration techniques. This helps children improve attention, body awareness, emotional regulation, and participation in daily activities.
Holistic Healing
Ayurveda views health as a balance between the body, mind, and nervous system. Our holistic approach includes:
- Ayurvedic purification and balancing therapies
- Herbal support where appropriate
- Lifestyle guidance
- Individualised treatment planning
The aim is to support overall wellbeing while creating a strong foundation for development.
Internal Regulation, Gut-Brain Health
Ayurveda recognises the close relationship between digestion and overall health. Our approach focuses on supporting:
- Healthy digestion (Agni)
- Gut health
- Reducing internal imbalance
- Nutritional guidance
Supporting gut health may contribute to improved overall wellbeing and daily functioning.
Vyavastha, Structure and Routine
Children often learn best in predictable environments. We guide families in creating:
- Consistent daily routines
- Healthy sleep habits
- Balanced diet guidance
- Reduced unnecessary screen time
- Regular therapy schedules
A structured routine helps children feel secure and supports learning throughout the day.
Awareness and Adaptive Neurodevelopment
Parents are an important part of every child's developmental journey. Our team provides practical guidance, home programmes, and multidisciplinary therapy strategies that encourage consistent learning beyond the therapy centre. Small, consistent efforts can help children strengthen communication, independence, and everyday participation over time.
Integrated Autism Services Under One Roof
The SHIVA Protocol combines multiple services into one coordinated treatment plan. Our integrated care includes:
Occupational Therapy
Supports fine motor skills, independence in daily tasks, and sensory-motor coordination to help children participate more fully in everyday life.
Speech Therapy
Enhances verbal and non-verbal communication, language articulation, fluency, social interaction, and cognitive expression.
Behaviour Therapy
Focuses on positive behaviour shaping, safety awareness, reduction of repetitive patterns, and social-emotional adaptation.
Sensory Integration Therapy
Assists children in regulating responses to tactile, auditory, visual, vestibular, and environmental sensitivities.
Special Education
Supports developmental learning milestones, reading, basic numeracy, writing skills, and school readiness strategies.
Ayurvedic Treatments
Holistic, non-invasive Ayurvedic therapies led by experienced clinicians to restore digestion (Agni), gut-brain harmony, and overall body vitality.
Parent Guidance Programmes
Empowers families with structured home routines, screen-time reduction guides, progress reviews, and interactive support.
