Unexplained regression in Down syndrome (URDS) has become a significant issue in clinical practice and research. This report illustrates the case of a patient with URDS treated with psychological treatment using Dohsa‐hou, in addition to medication. Although psychological treatment may be helpful, monitoring potential risks of acute aggression is necessary.
