Non-invasive should mean child-safe and honest

Non-invasive autism support should not mean miracle claims. It should mean therapy that respects the child's comfort, nervous system, sensory needs, communication, and developmental readiness.

At DARC, non-invasive supports are used as part of a broader assessment-led plan, not as a standalone cure.

Avoid guaranteed cure claims

Parents should be careful with any promise that one method will cure autism, make every child speak in a fixed number of days, or replace the need for assessment.

A safer centre will explain what it can support, what it cannot promise, how progress is measured, and how parents are involved.
