More About Brain Balance of Midlothian
Our Whole Brain Approach
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.
A Personalized Program to Meet Your Needs
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.
What to Expect During the Assessment
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.

Stories from Brain Balance Center of Midlothian
"If you’re cautiously considering Brain Balance, schedule a meeting. It’s worth it. If you’re wondering if it is all worth the commitment and money. It’s worth it. If you’re wondering if you can handle a new routine. You can and it’s worth it. Brain Balance exercises helped my child gain control so normal activities didn’t result in violent outbursts of emotion. Now we’re all happy playing Monopoly together, even when we lose. A short moment of victory, but still significant. A Brain Balance Win."
River
"My daughter has had the best experience at Brain Balance. Not only is the program working for my daughter; she enjoys it!! The staff is amazing and becomes a part of your family. For anyone considering Brain Balance for your children, give them a shot! It is an investment into the wellbeing of your children and their future. It has made all the difference for us and will forever be grateful to Brain Balance and their staff."
Blakely
"Brain Balance has truly helped in all aspects in life, memorizing plays for football, school, hand eye coordination, and it made me more calm. It’s mainly helped me in school. Since starting Brain Balance, my grades have never been this high before. The key for it to work is consistency and wanting to do it. The coaches also treat you like family. I 100% recommend Brain Balance for anyone in need of it."
Jason
"The director and staff are incredibly knowledgeable, organized and motivated to help your child improve his/ her skills! I am amazed at the level of professionalism and warmth that they show on a daily basis. My child made significant improvements with this program!"
Gabriel
"One of the best experiences my daughter has had. She's completed the program and looks forward to her follow-ups. She's happy, more communicative, understanding, and patient. She's flourished into a go-getter!"
Sophia
"Highly recommend Brain Balance. My son was 9 when he started the program and went 3 times per week for six months. The staff was amazing and I never felt like we were on this journey alone. The results from the beginning to the end have been tremendous for my son. Very thankful for Brain Balance!"
Cayson
"Our son has pretty significant struggles and we couldn't have even imagined how far Brain Balance would bring him. I didn't want to force him to make eye contact with people if he didn't want to, but Brain Balance showed us that he did want to, his muscles weren't strong enough to hold that contact. He does it all of the time now and you can tell he is so happy that he can!"
Burton
"We came to Brain Balance because our son was having issues focusing in the first grade and was getting easily distracted at school. Our family wanted to find a way to support our son through a natural avenue and not resorting to medication to assist with his ability to focus. Thanks to Brain Balance, key wins include: less emotional responses to transitions, increased ability to focus, improved physical coordination, increased ability to absorb information, resulting in improved grades in school!"
Palmer
"Joining Brain Balance was the best decision I made! The awesome staff at Brain Balance are there to support you all the way through and provide you with all of the tools to help you succeed. I am seeing results in my daughters' school behavior, home life, and we are able to enjoy more activities in public settings together without the fear of outburst. This program is making a huge difference not only in my daughter's life, but also in our relationship."
Serenity
"Brain Balance brought my sweet, loving son back to me. He was sleeping all day, angry, had lack of motivation, and was lethargic. It all changed when he woke up, got ready to go, and told me that he did a good job getting ready. I know that Brain Balance works - my son now is open to sharing his thoughts and feelings, he is interacting and playing with his siblings, following our families routines, and he is hugging his family members again."
Solomon
"Brain Balance has been a game changer for my family. To see my son progress has been a true blessing, and it's because of the amazing coaches, directors, etc. at BB. From the beginning they have been in our corner and always available to answer questions or just let me vent. I encourage anyone that is having issues with their child - whether it is academic, emotional, anxiety - to give Brain Balance the opportunity to change their lives for the better!"
McCoy
"How grateful we are for the loving, nurturing guidance Wendy's team at Brain Balance gave our 5 year old son! The whole body science based and healthy habit approach to progress benefited our whole family. Our child's measurable results in 8 months are remarkable and, in addition, his cooperation and willing heart are astounding. He's learned life skills and habits that have set him up for success in life socially, intellectually, physically, and emotionally."
Briggs
"We couldn’t have made a better investment in our son’s future. As my son progressed in the program, he gained strength, confidence, and new abilities. We believe wholeheartedly that the work our son has done with Brain Balance has significantly improved his physical, emotional, and learning abilities. Our family has sincere gratitude for the Brain Balance team for changing our son's life."
Niko
"When I walked into Brain Balance, I was truly lost. He was barely speaking in complete sentences, had zero focus, struggled to make friends and was getting in trouble at school. Today he's like a completely different kid. His speech has improved to the point where we can have conversations. He's making friends at school and doing great academically. Most of all, my son now gives me hugs and tells me he loves me when he couldn't before."
TJ
"I cannot sing the praises of this program loudly enough! It is NOT a quick fix - it is the exact tool we needed to make lasting changes. The staff is so knowledgeable, welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. Our child was really struggling when we began, and just a few months in, we had already begun to see marked improvement in her ability to self-regulate and communicate feelings. Her overall attitude was more positive, and she just seemed happier."
Mireya
"Brain Balance has been a game changer in our family. Our son was really struggling with anxiety and his behavior and emotions were all over the place. From his evaluation he was hooked and wanted to attend every day. It took until about week 6 to start seeing the benefits and change in behavior and attitude, but from then things just kept improving. We will forever be grateful to everyone at Brain Balance for the time they put into our family. They made it fun for our son and he is so happy with how far he has come."
Brezlun
"My concerns were immediately addressed as the staff were nothing less than extraordinary in their commitment to Wyatt and his family. Without fail, each week, Wyatt demonstrated a growing awareness for self, increased confidence, and increased pride in his accomplishments. Brain Balance was giving Wyatt what he needed. Because of the growth throughout the program, Wyatt’s ability to apply skills developed at Brain Balance has now transitioned into his Kindergarten experience."
Wyatt
"My son (Parker/4 yrs) has made significant improvements since being in the Brain Balance program! His attention span/focus has improved and his overall behavior at home & school. We also notice him being less impulsive, making more eye contact and being more regulated/being able to think ahead of his expectations/have more follow through. He is motivated to go and everyone at BB has supported him and I can’t wait to see more growth! Shout out to his coach Ms. Autumn…she’s so awesome and motivating for Parker to do his best each session!"
Parker
"Brain Balance has given him an opportunity to engage in a program that is catered to meet his needs, challenge him where he is at, and push him to be better. Fast forward to now— so much focus and attention improvement, increased fine motor skills, starting to read, doing well in math, etc. Brain Balance understands the science behind right brain/left brain and how to help each child develop the brain strength (just like any other muscle!!) to improve in basic skills as well as make big strides towards what maybe before felt like impossible."
Lincoln
"Brain Balance gave my son a WHOLE new confidence! Before he couldn’t even climb up the ladder at the playground, and now he zooms up the ladder, goes across the monkey bars, and zips down the slide without any hesitation! His sense of balance has improved 10 fold, but more importantly, his sense of self has improved so much! Forever grateful!"
Liam
"My son has excelled so much socially, intellectually, and has had a huge success with his body awareness and core strength! He has continued to show progress in school and everyday life skills. My child can dress his self, blow up a balloon, his balance and coordination have improved and his eyes are able to track objects better which is improving his learning. I would do this program over again for sure! Brain Balance truly cares for you and the child and go out do their way to make sure you are getting just that. We are family now and I so appreciate all they have done for us."
Tatum
"Overall, I have personally seen a HUGE difference in our son’s behavior. Even our 10 year old daughter commented recently that he is a “completely different kid”. His frequent meltdowns are almost non-existent now. He helps out with chores around the house now. He tells us he loves us regularly now- something he very rarely did before. He is an overall happier kid - and even had one of the biggest smiles I’ve ever seen a few weeks ago. That’s priceless to me. "
Oliver
"My son's academic performance was declining in Kindergarten (2022). It was constant meetings with his teacher regarding his impulsive behavior and focus. We began with our Brain Balance journey late November, have been keeping up with his home exercises and diet. As of January 2024, his teacher gave me a call and said she is very pleased with his steady progress that he has made in reading and math. She even asked "do you think BB is working?" I replied "absolutely!" We can't thank Brain Balance enough for all that they do! My son calls it the "brain gym". And his confidence has definitely grown overnight!"
Daniel
"I can’t say enough how much this program has meant to our family. As the girls have completed the program, it’s like I have seen so many different lightbulb moments for both of them. If you asked me if we would do this again, I would without doubt tell you yes! One of the best decisions our family has made for our children."
Caroline & Audrey
"I wish that I had known about Brain Balance years ago. I always thought my daughter’s differences were just that, I didn't realize there were ways I could impact her life trajectory. Before Brain Balance she had no thought of higher education, now she dreams of College and a career she loves. Yes, her grades have improved. But to me, the improvement in her grades is such a minor part of what has improved. You just have to try it and see it to believe it."
Liliane
"Every single person we’ve interacted with has been knowledgeable, personable, helpful and genuinely interested in my son’s progress. Bottom line - they make it fun so it doesn’t feel like a chore, for parents or kids. We’ve seen significant progress in our son’s processing, body awareness, impulse control, fewer outbursts and issues at school. The Brain Balance program is paying us back ten-fold!"
Owen
"We had a great experience at Brain Balance for my teenage son. We saw so many improvements in his academic abilities. He was able to work independently and begin homework on his own without a struggle. He also became more coordinated and organized at home! We highly recommend this program!"
Arden
"Brain Balance was a huge positive change for our son! Before we started there were constant fights over homework and reading, by the time we were done there were no meltdowns over it anymore!! His teacher even said he was the only child in class to jump two levels in reading! We are so pleased with the confidence it gave him as well and would definitely recommend this program!"
Colt
"The at home exercises helped strengthen his body movement so much that he went from not catching to catching almost every football tossed to him. His eye hand coordination has gone from last in the room to notice something to being the first. In his taekwondo after school sports they have to memorize multiple forms with multiple steps and that used to be hard for him but with the help of brain balance he’s plowing through them quickly and with added confidence and finer balance and mobility. Academically he went from not passing the PALs tests to passing them and in the classroom his confidence and willingness to try has greatly improved. Even his handwriting is improving and he is able to focus more on his reading because of the eye strengthening work he’s done at Brain Balance. He feels less anxious at school and seems happier all around. Thank you Brain Balance!"
Sawyer
"Our family has had an incredible experience with Brain Balance Center of Midlothian. Our youngest daughter has benefitted tremendously from the services she is receiving there. We can see a major difference in her ability to pay attention, work on tasks independently and express herself. The staff are friendly, very responsive and easy to get a hold of. Our daughter enjoys going to her sessions and when she was on vacation earlier this summer, said how much she missed going to Brain Balance. I'm very thankful for the services offered she is getting and feel like they are helping our daughter in ways that will positively impact her for the rest of her life."
Lily
"Brain Balance has been a game changer for our family! Our child came in struggling to read and in 6 months she is reading at grade level. Her hand writing went from barely legible to precise letters. We are so happy and grateful for Brain Balance and the service they provide."

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.
Support Every Step of The Way
The Brain Balance Program begins with conducting a personal assessment of your child to get to the root of the underlying issue. This allows us to develop a specific plan tailored to your child’s areas of struggle. Once The Brain Balance Achievement Center of Midlothian has mapped out your child’s personal plan, we have in-center sensory-motor and academic training sessions which target areas of weakness. These sessions are one hour up to three times a week. The initial assessment will determine the number of session your child will need to complete the program. Due to the uniqueness of our plans, some children may need more or less time in order to achieve their individual goals. The Brain Balance Program also includes in-home activities and exercises to support what is happening in the center. Additionally, we provide parent conferences every 12 weeks to track and monitor the child’s progress.
If your child is struggling academically, behaviorally and/or socially, the Brain Balance Center Midlothian, VA can help. Every child begins with an in-depth assessment, but it is also possible to visit our center for a tour, please contact our office for details!
