Results
from an autism study in the May 2013 issue of Behavioral Neuroscience show
environmental enrichment strategies reduce autism symptoms in boys ages 3 to
12. After six months of an environmental enrichment program that included
olfactory and tactile stimulation, the enriched group showed clinically
significant improvement of symptoms at a rate of 42% compared with 7% of the
control group. Additionally, 69% of parents of kids in the enriched group
reported improvement, compared with only 31% of the control group.
Researchers
are now conducting a larger study that includes girls with autism. Click here to read

At
Brain Balance, sensory-motor stimulation and environmental enrichment are an
integral part of each student’s individualized program! What’s the Brain
Balance difference? The difference is that each child is assessed in more than
900 functions, then a program is custom designed for his or her specific needs.
The results of this recent autism study underscore the effectiveness of the
Brain Balance method. By combining sensory-motor, cognitive, and academic
activities with nutritional guidelines meant to ease any behavioral symptoms
caused by food sensitivities and/or allergies, we’ve established a
multi-faceted, holistic approach that helps your child achieve optimum body and
brain function without medication. We work with children who exhibit symptoms
of ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourette’s, Asperger’s, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. Contact us today to learn more! 512-328-7771
