Did you know the brain can change at any age? Change in the brain can refer to new pathways being formed or connections becoming stronger and more efficient. New pathways are formed through sensory stimulation, life experiences and new information. These connections and pathways are important because they communicate with all regions of the brain, allowing us to successfully perform daily cognitive and physical tasks, and facilitating our executive functioning.

When individuals struggle with focus, behavior, or sensory processing, it can be linked to weak connections across different regions in the brain. But the good news is, we know that the brain can change.

The Brain Balance program is designed to strengthen and build brain connectivity with a unique combination of physical, sensory, and cognitive activities. These new, efficient, and effective connections in the brain help improve in the following areas:

• Cognitive Tasks
• Executive Functioning
• Focus
• Memory
• Learning
• Comprehension
• Reasoning
• Behaviors & EmotionsOrganization
• Self-motivation
• Problem Solving

By building stronger brain connections, you can help yourself or your child get to the root of their challenges and build a stronger foundation for success.

At Brain Balance, we believe it is critical to identify the root cause of challenges to create an action plan for change. Our program begins with a 1-to-2-hour in-depth, comprehensive assessment. We use what we learn in the comprehensive assessment to set up your individualized program. By doing this for each unique person, individually, we create a customized program that addresses any deficits in functions or skills you may have.

The frequency and duration of these tasks, activities, and exercises are tailored based on the individual’s needs.

The assessment includes sensory, physical, and cognitive activities that identify areas of development that need strengthening. These critical areas of development are at the root of our ability to pay attention, learn, engage, interact, and manage stress, behavior, and anxiety.

From the results of the assessment, our team will help create a plan focused on building the brain connections needed to help create improvements for the individual.

Dedicated coaches and directors are your personal guides through the program, including evaluating progress and leveling up as individual advances. They will also support through behavioral coaching, nutritional support, lifestyle changes as well as advocacy for educational meetings.
