The Brain Balance Center, with multiple locations in Colorado and elsewhere, works with families who deal with Functional Disconnection Syndrome, a condition described by the Brain Balance Center as combining symptoms seen in many neurological conditions, including ADHD, sensory processing issues, and obsessive-compulsive behaviors. The Brain Balance Centers focus on three areas of treatment: the training of senses and muscles; academics; and changes in diet.

Functional Disconnection Syndrome has diverse treatments and approaches.
The director of the Center in Highlands Ranch, Co., believes that parents are attracted to their programs because of the holistic approach that combines exercise and sensory stimulus with academic work and a changed diet. The price for Brain Balance programs varies between $5,900 and $12,000. One family from Kiowa Colorado found the expense worthwhile as they saw their fourth-grade daughter blossom from frustration to joy and accomplishment.
