I would talk to his medical team first to find out the cause and what work they would avoid as well as any positions for the body that they would avoid. The cause and prognosis is critical since there may be underlying conditions that could be agravated by anything you may do.

That being said, the energy work (elements, chakra cavity, chakra and aura work) are the place to start. I would be very careful with opening moves around the head and all points should be done with a light touch. (What testing techniques did you learn in your training?)
