The number of children diagnosed with autism is constantly growing. Autism is a neurobiological developmental disorder that usually manifests itself in early childhood, often before the child reaches thirty months of age. Although children with autism may look like other healthy children, they face serious challenges in life, which become more and more pronounced if they do not seek timely professional help and do not engage in appropriate therapeutic programs. Essential characteristics of autism include difficulties in social interaction, communication (whether verbal or non-verbal), unusual behavior, limited interests, and various motor disturbances and stereotypies. Timely professional help and therapeutic interventions are key to improving their quality of life. Physiotherapists play an important role in supporting autistic children. Therapeutic approaches are aimed at reducing symptoms and enabling optimal development. The most commonly applied physiotherapy procedures for children with autism include kinesitherapy, hippotherapy, Hallwick therapy, sensory integration therapy and therapeutic massage. These therapeutic approaches are tailored to each child's needs and aim to improve communication, social skills, sensory integration, motor skills and other aspects of development. Although the cause of autism is not fully understood and there is no universal therapeutic approach, the earliest inclusion of children in physiotherapy interventions can significantly contribute to the normal growth and development of children with autism, enabling them to realize their full potential and achieve the best possible quality of life.
