Journal of Mental Health & Clinical Psychology Research
Research published in the Journal of Mental Health and Clinical Psychology suggests that the Brain Balance Program is an effective, non-drug option for reducing and improving emotional and developmental challenges like anxiety, ADHD or autism.
The study focused on children who were at or below developmental milestones and evaluated the parent-reported changes in their behavior before and after undergoing 5-6 months of the Brain Balance program. The findings revealed that nearly all the children who participated in the program showed improvements in mental well-being, with most categories reaching an average of 40-50% improvement.
Study Insights:
Parents of children who completed the Brain Balance Program reported the following improvements, on average:
- 40% improvement in behavior and anxiety
- 50% improvement in emotional functioning, ability to retain academic information, and social confidence
- 60% improvement in overall happiness
Cambridge Brain Sciences Research
Cambridge Brain Sciences is collaborating with Brain Balance to understanding the cognitive impact of the Brain Balance program on attention, focus, anxiety and development. Preliminary results show that children who participated in the Brain Balance program have demonstrated a statistically significant change in 11 of the 12 Cambridge Brain Sciences cognitive tasks measured.

Home-Based Brain Balance® Program Study from California San Francisco (UCSF)
Brain Balance has recently begun a study, in collaboration with researchers at University of California San Francisco (UCSF), to assess the impact of the home-based Brain Balance program in improving outcomes in a population of children with attention and cognition difficulties.

University of Cambridge Research
In a study that was not associated with Brain Balance, scientists from the University of Cambridge found that weak connectivity between different regions of the brain may be the reason why some children struggle. The severity of the learning difficulties were strongly associated with connectedness of brain hubs, suggesting that the connectivity between these hubs plays a key role in passing information between different areas of the brain.
