Brain light therapy shows promise for easing autism challenges
NCT ID NCT05363982
Summary
This study tested whether a non-invasive light treatment, called transcranial photobiomodulation, could help reduce core symptoms of autism in adults. Forty-one participants with autism received either the real light treatment or a sham (placebo) version at home over eight weeks. Researchers measured changes in social skills, behavior, and overall functioning to see if the treatment was safe and effective.
