The Brain Balance Story
More than a decade ago, Brain Balance was founded by a parent who was also a functional neurologist. He recognized the pain many families felt as they saw their kids struggle. He knew that in most instances, parents didn’t want coping mechanisms or medication. Parents were looking for something different — they wanted lasting change.
As a specialist in stroke and brain rehab, he began applying concepts of recovery and rehabilitation to development in kids who struggle. He researched many methodologies on how stroke patients were able to rebuild and strengthen connections within the brain to speed up recovery. This evidence — that the brain is malleable and CAN change — led to our beginning and the development of the Brain Balance Program.
Ten years later, Brain Balance has nearly 90 centers nationwide and has helped more than 50,000 kids, and their stories are amazing!
For the past decade, we have helped families at centers across the country. Now through our virtual, at-home program, we have the ability to help families worldwide.
Brain Balance is a mission-driven organization with the lifelong goal of helping kids and their families find success and change their future.
