New Study Shows Significant Cognitive Gains in Students after Brain Balance Program

A recent study conducted between Brain Balance (brainbalancecenters.com) and Cambridge Brain Sciences showed that students with attention and developmental challenges achieved significant cognitive improvement after the Brain Balance Program.

The program, which requires one hour of cognitive training activities per day paired with a brain-boosting nutrition plan, showed the greatest improvements on tasks of memory, reasoning, verbal ability, and concentration in students who completed just three months of the program. A total of 478 participants completed specific activities within the program that focused on sensory stimulation, body strength, coordination and timing, and exercises to improve eye coordination and auditory and visual processing. A series of 12 cognitive tasks created by Cambridge Brain Sciences were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the Brain Balance Program. The results showed that participants who completed three months of the program had improved on all 12 cognitive tasks and achieved greater improvements in cognitive performance as to participants who completed an average of just 27 days of the program.

Brain Balance, celebrating five years this month, is the leading drug-free program designed to help children who struggle with social, emotional, behavioral, and academic issues. The team has helped hundreds of area youth greatly improve symptoms of poor attention, focus, learning, and social skills. They are grateful for the continued support from the community to fulfill their mission. Brain Balance has two locations in Omaha that have both received rave reviews on their comprehensive programming: Brain Balance Center of Omaha at 2974 S 84th St. and West Omaha at 17837 Pierce Plaza.
