Brain Balance Mission Statement

“To make the Brain Balance Program available to as many children as possible, so that each child may reach his or her greatest physical, mental, social and academic potential.”

What We Do

Brain Balance Achievement Centers offer the Brain Balance Program™ across the continental United States. We work with children who suffer from Developmental Disorders such as Autism Spectrum, Asperger’s, ADD/ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourette’s, and other neurological disorders. The Brain Balance Program™ is a unique program which utilizes a comprehensive multi-faceted approach designed specifically to address the various difficulties exhibited or experienced by each child. We consistently incorporate the latest information available from current brain research as a means to continuously improve our abilities to address these complex conditions. It has been our experience that most of these children suffer in a variety of the aforementioned categories (i.e. motor issues, visual-spatial-organizational issues, social abilities, sensory issues, immunity dysfunction, cognitive dysfunction, and/or academic difficulties).

It is now understood that the underlying cause of many of these disorders is a functional imbalance of brain activity within each side and/or between the right and left sides of the brain. Through the principles of neuroplasticity the brain has the ability to grow new connections; the brain cells can become larger and more efficient. We can improve the timing and rhythm between the two halves of the brain and make them more coherent. It is even now thought that we might be capable of actually creating new brain cells. This all happens with the proper stimulation of particular circuits in the brain. This is best done with a combination of environmental and cognitive based stimulation directed toward smaller deficient circuits.

Our program addresses your child’s underlying brain dysfunction through our unique protocols which target sensory/motor deficits, neuro cognitive/academic concerns, and bio-nutritional needs.  Based on the results of our comprehensive evaluation we tailor an individualized academic program.   We teach according to each child’s specific needs in an effort to help them achieve their highest academic potential.  Your child’s individualized program will address the cause of his disorder rather than focusing on it’s symptoms, only one component of the disorder, or it’s resultant behaviors.  Each program is directed towards improving specific regions of brain under-activity and resultant academic weaknesses from the subtle to the profound. Some of the children we work with need extensive academic assistance while others simply need an “extra boost”.

Brain Balance Achievement Centers hold periodic parent lectures where parents and professionals alike can gain a unique window into a child’s brain function. Our lectures offer insight into how the brain normally develops and what may interfere with the stages of typical development. Most importantly we will show you how with proper intervention your child’s problems may be corrected. Contact a local center for specific information regarding upcoming lectures.
