This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether Cawthorne Cooksey exercises—a set of targeted balance and coordination movements—can help autistic children who struggle with balance and dizziness caused by inner ear problems. Some children with autism have difficulty sensing movement and balance because their inner ear system isn't working as well as it should. This study wants to see if these specific exercises can improve balance, coordination, and confidence in daily activities.
Many autistic children experience balance problems and avoid activities like jumping or climbing because they feel unsteady or scared. Current treatments help, but researchers want to know if this particular exercise program works better or offers a good alternative for these children.

You would attend sessions where a therapist guides your child through balance exercises—some similar to what might be done at a gym or during play, like using a balance board, exercising on a gym ball, or gentle jumping activities. Some children in the study will do one set of exercises (the Cawthorne Cooksey program), while others will do more traditional balance activities. Sessions would happen regularly over a set period, and the team will track improvements in your child's balance and confidence over time.
