Brain Balance

Brain Balance Achievement Centers are after-school learning centers that offer a program of brain training, exercise, simple physical exercises, skills training, and dietary advice that it says helps children with developmental and learning disabilities.

[1][2] The Brain Balance program was developed by Robert Melillo, a New York–based chiropractor who later added what he calls "functional neurology" to his practice.

He began developing the business and its learning centers in 2006, opting for a franchising model.

[3][4] That assessment is consistent with a 2015 determination by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services that there was insufficient evidence of effectiveness for the company's claims.

[5] The results of a June 2018 year-long investigation by National Public Radio cast further doubt on the veracity of claims by the company.
