Brain Balance is the leading drug-free training program designed to help kids improve focus, behavior, social skills, anxiety, and academic performance.
The program goes above and beyond the more traditional, mainstream approaches you may have tried before to help your child get to the root of their challenges.
Harvard University’s McLean Hospital completed a study which demonstrated that the Brain Balance Program is as effective as stimulant medication in alleviating ADHD symptoms among children. Cambridge Brain Sciences also collaborated with Brain Balance on a study the results of which show that children who completed three months of the Brain Balance Program displayed significant improvements in cognition, particularly in areas of memory, reasoning, verbal ability, and concentration.

Brain Balance does not require that a child has a medical diagnosis, nor do we clinically diagnose medical conditions. Our focus is on understanding the struggles these children experience and helping them develop and strengthen the connections to help reduce those struggles.
For those who do have a diagnosis,1 research has shown that the unique challenges your child is facing can be linked to weak connections across different regions of the brain.
The Brain Balance assessment provides you with a deeper view of your child’s struggles. During the assessment, your child’s sensory, motor and cognitive development are evaluated. This assessment helps identify areas of development that need strengthening. The reasons why a child may excel in some areas but has trouble in others will become clearer. From the results, we create a plan that helps your child overcome their struggles.
Fill out our form now to get started. A team member from a Brain Balance Center near you will reach out to personally discuss your child’s challenges and schedule your child’s assessment.
When kids struggle with focus, behavior or sensory processing, it can be linked to weak connections across different regions in the brain. The good news is, we know that the brain can change in a way that may lead to improvements for your child or teen. The Brain Balance program exercises and activities are uniquely designed to help strengthen and build new connections by using a combination of physical, sensory, and cognitive activities. These new, efficient, and effective connections in the brain lead to improvements in our ability to complete cognitive tasks and in our executive functioning:
When these skills and functions improve, a child may feel improved confidence and be better equipped to engage and thrive in the world around them.
The Brain Balance program was recently part of a research study conducted by Harvard University’s McLean Hospital. The research study focused on the impact of aspects of the Brain Balance program, completed at home, on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).We are incredibly excited to share the preliminary findings of this ongoing research.

“Writing is tighter and more controlled.”
“I wanted you to see how Samuel’s handwriting has changed. The top portion is from 1/11/14; the bottom half is from last week. Neatness is not his thing, but the writing is tighter and more controlled. 🙂 Yay!”

“Brain Balance is amazing and I wished this program was available in schools.”
IV is 3 ½ years old. We first wanted to have IV tested when he was behaving out of the norm. He has a twin sister and as she became more outgoing and verbal he became more introverted and frustrated. If Adelyn was singing or talking and IV wanted to speak he would fall to the floor and cover his head.
We contacted Brain Balance of Franklin and his assessment revealed he has a sensory processing disorder. We entered a 12 week program and within a week, we saw less breakdowns at home. Within two weeks IV began enunciating long words that he would not attempt in the past. In three – four weeks he began to tell stories at the table, something only Adelyn did before.
Over the weeks, he started reading books to us in his own words, his balance and strength has improved and IV’s appetite has increased with less sensitivity to smells. We are now in his 10th week and he is advancing in areas that his sister has not yet. Brain Balance is amazing and I wished this program was available in schools because of the miraculous change we have seen in our son. Thank you Brain Balance for uncovering who we knew was there all along; our brilliant IV.”
